I think most people complaining about the bible wouldn't be complaining if 
others weren't trying to use it to control them.

You can give a lousy review of a cookbook, but nobody really cares because 
nobody force-feeds you what's described in the recipes.

Yeah, actually, it is.  For a book that's supposed to provide absolute 
morals and be divinely inspired, it sure has an awful lot of conflicting 
interpretations.
