When I was a Christian I have a bible Mentor who's name is "Eli". He's known in my country as a "walking Bible". Pick a word, like "Lion", and he'll tell you the exact Book, Chapter, and verse where you'll find the instance of that word.

Of course, him being our mentor (and he only had two students, me and my late love-of-my-life), we're described as apprentice walking bibles.

We were just "Christians". After splitting away from Catholicism, I didn't belong to any other christian sect (protestantism) that are known around (Baptist, Methodist, Born-Again, Church of Christ)... our little group, where only known as "Followers of the old path", a group practicing on what a real christian should be.

Though my atheism (which I am now) was brought by my mentor's own words: to use my reason and not my blind belief. He told me to question anybody whoever they may be. It was pretty ironic.

So anyway, it's a good thing that you are reading it. To quote Dave Silverman, the President of American Atheists, "I gave my daughter a bible. That's how you make an Atheist".

I've learned a lot about the bible when I was younger, going to church with my family and what not. I've decided to read it from cover to cover my self to get my own interpretation from it. I didn't get very far yet, but I'd love to discuss what I've read so far!
