Book of a lifetime: The Bible - Reviews - Books - The Independent
The Bible is one of those books, and there are others, that everyone thinks they know. In almost every case – from deranged fundamentalists to raving neo-atheists, and including me – they are wrong about what is in it. This is partly because it is so large it is hard to "know" it all and partly because none of us come to it clean. It has been so used and abused, has so permeated our language, our culture and our civic lives that for better or worse it is a book of everybody's lifetime.
