Children love the feeling of accomplishment they get from doing things by themselves: getting dressed, tying their shoes ... and especially reading! That's why boys and girls get so excited about The Early Reader's Bible: the Bible that beginning readers can read all on their own... |
When people answer a question with, "Just read the Bible."?
Do they know what they're requesting?
Christians may find the Bible to be reassuring, but atheists and others tend to note the chaotic violence of the Hebrew God with horror and revulsion.
It seems to me that reading or rereading the BIble reinforces the reader's original impressions on the subject, regardless of the openness of mind. Anyone else see it like that?
I agree. The people who find the Bible to be "inspiring" are people who are already convinced about some part of it. Once people have the one initial "born again" experience after a time of desperation (where basically their prayer is a mediation that transfers self-responsibility symbolically on to an external entity), their mind is open enough to swallow whatever the book reinforces.
In fact, I've known some people that DID presume the Bible was all warm-and-fuzzy, and reading the book in fact shattered (NOT reinforce) their original suspicions.
Eleventy though admittedly brings up a good point. Both of these answers ("Just pick up the Bible and feel touched" / "Just put down the Bible and think") may falsely presume something about the other person's cognitive reasoning and personal experience.

The Catholic Church and the Bible $11.95 Are Catholics biblical illiterates? So goes the frequent question, proving that myths die hard. But Catholics ought to be able to answer the charge made by many non-Catholics in this regard. This book is a response to Fundamentalist critics and an explanation of the Catholic biblical tradition. The Catholic Church and the Bible is a significant scriptural study guide, published from a Catholic perspective and particularly keyed to the new Catechism of the Catholic Church. The well-planned, straight-forward text is clearly outlined to make information easy to find and understand. Main topics include: - The Catholic understanding of the Bible - God's Word and its purpose in the Church - A biblical theology of the Mass, the place of the Bible in the Sacred Liturgy - A question-and-answer section that deals with pertinent and popular inquiries made by Catholics and non-Catholics alike This work should be heartily welcomed by both clergy and laity, for Father Stravinskas sheds new light on Catholic Bible study by writing with candor, clarity and scriptural backing. This is ideal for high schools and RCIA programs. "An excellent tool for the Catholic apologist. The reader has everything in one place: pithy answers plus biblical and magisterial citations. Fr. Stravinskas is the best priest-apologist in the country." "Karl Keating, Author, Catholicism and Fundamentalism Fr. Peter M.J. Stravinskas is the well-known editor of the The Catholic Answer magazine, a contributing editor to National Catholic Register , and has written over 500 articles for numerous Catholic publications. |
