Quote of the Day (Julia M. O'Brien)
"A lot of verbage gets thrown around about the Bible (its perfection, its authority, its goodness) that makes sense only if you don't read it--or read it seriously. I'm a firm believer that you shouldn't say something about the Bible that isn't true about all of it. If you're going to talk about the Bible as the only rule of faith and practice, then you should be prepared to explain why you don't live your life by all of it.
I spend my energies trying to get people to spend less time spouting claims about the Bible and more time actually reading it, being honest about it, and valuing it for what it actually is."
-- Julia M. O'Brien, "Claims about the Bible Work Best if You Don't Actually Read It"
