Yum, bible.

I've been reading the bible. I'm not on a sudden quest to find God or anything. Nor do I feel unsatisfied in my life. Well, maybe I do. I feel unsatisfied with the books on my bookshelf and the only book that I haven't read or thought about reading was the Bible. And so I picked it up and now I'm in "Chapter 46" or Genesis? Well, whatever. Its when Joseph is the Pharaoh's right hand man.
I remember in high school I had this debate with a fellow classmate about the Bible. I told her that I would read the Bible as more of a literary item rather than a strict religious text. The Bible is full of stories that teaches morals, etc. But she disagreed with me. She is convinced that the Bible is the word of God.
But I don't think so. I mean, if God were to directly communicate down His rules and everything, he would be a little more concise. Well, aside from the Ten Commandments. Ah, whatever.
So far, I'm enjoying it. Please, don't smite me but its a real page turner. I know what happens kind of but I don't know the back stories or anything. So I recommend it.
Also, I've been keeping a dream journal. Yum.
