In most motel rooms there is a copy of Gideon's Bible. Where is my Bhagavad Gita? My Koran? My Words of Wisdom from the Flying Spaghetti Monster? Huh?
Anyway, for a little light reading, I checked out Genesis 1, the bone of contention for the creationist fascists. I don't really see their problem: If you change the word God to Unknown Power, it sounds pretty much like what scientists say except for the timing.
"Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. . . And [God] created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind."
Then we get to the part where it looks like scholars made an error in translation.
The text reads: "So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him."
It should properly read: "So Man created god in his own image. In the image of Man created He him."
Read it for yourself genesis
