Have you ever read a holy book?

Asked by OpryLeigh (25305points) December 16th, 2009

When I say read I mean read cover to cover rather than just dipping in and out or reading the bits that suit you and nothing else.

There is a lot of discussion about religion on Fluther and while I enjoyed contributing to those it got me wondering how many people, regardless of their beliefs or how they feel about religion in general, have actually read a holy book. Many people quote The Bible for example but I wonder how many people just search the internet for something in the Bible that backs up their arguement without knowing what else the Bible has to say.

Personally, I am not religious although I do have a certain amount of faith. I read a childrens Bible when I was younger but, although I have tried, have never been able to get through an actual Bible. It’s hard work!

This question isn’t just aimed at the Bible by the way. I am interested to know if you have read any holy book.
