Have you read religious texts?

[N192K001]

Yes, many.

In the Judeo-Christian tradition, I've read the more universal canons of the Torah & the New Testament, as well as some of the controversial Pseudepigrapha/Apocrypha (accepted by some but rejected by others).

I've also read excerpts of texts by other faiths: Hindu रामायणम् ("Rāmāyaṇam"; more commonly:「Ramayana」), Buddhist texts, Shinto texts, and others. Also, some texts (mistakenly) considered religions: the 論語 (「Analects」) of the political-system/code of ethics Confucianism & some texts of the the natural-philosophy Taoism.

I have only read the Bible. To me they are all the same -- old myths and fabulous tales. I don't believe any of the miracles described actually happened. Nor do I believe that anyone is a true prophet. I think that some people believe they are prophets, and other people believe that they are. I don't. I think all prophesy, whether modern or ancient, is just make-believe. There's no way to really know. No prophet makes testable claims.

Yeah for school I did. Most boring shit ever and I can't even understand what they're saying, the plots are too all over the place. Also, its annoying being told what to do and what's good n bad

[lightbulb27]

yes several, parts of them. I've spent more time thinking about what they are saying and trying to convey and the disaster that humans made of them in their interpretations.

[NamerOfStars]

Quite a few of them. My general attitude is that if millions of people over hundreds of years decide to base their morality around a given book, you should probably read that book.

[Gal67]

Yes I have. I've read the Bible (various versions of it, and right now as I type this I have a copy of the 'New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures' on my desk), and the Q'uran.

[Medhat-M]

Yes.. And it made me realize how the Abrahamic God is so human-like... Controlled by emotions and only cares about his peers from the middle east

[sensible27]

I haven't, maybe I should.
