I just got one and now I have to read it, it was like 10 bucks! I mean come on if they want to convert you then shouldn't they be free? So I am going to read it now and if I find out there really is a God (shakes fist angrily at sky)...

At the moment, among my rather meagre collection that I have here (I moved here by backpack nine years ago), I have the following:
Two Bibles (one KJV and one Turkish translation)
About 5 Qur'ans (people give them to me as presents :P )
A Tao te Ching
A Bhagavad-Gita
The Upanishads
The Analects
I won't lie and say that I've read them all cover-to-cover, but I've certainly thumbed through them all often enough. Not in some time, though. I usually use on-line sources now.

Of course I do. Granted, I own about a million books, so it stands to reason that I'd have a bible in there, but I don't understand how an atheist cannot own a bible.
I even own a copy of the gospels in Braid Scots. I was going to post some, but I can't find it right now. Crap.

Yes, I own several Bibles and many more versions are available on a disc I have and on the web. About 28 versions in English alone.

Sure.

Yes, I own a Buy-Bull. I need it so that when Christians fling crap at me, I can fling their own crap back at them. It also comes in handy for crossword puzzles. I'm glad I stole it from the motel, because it would be such a waste to spend money on one.

Actually I do have one Bible that I got as a Wedding present. I think it's in my closet. And I think it is a Catholic Bible. And ????

you should go to a local library and find a copy from before king james changed things to his liking... VERY interesting... I think most christians would be shocked!

Yes, many. I collect antique versions of them. One is over 100 years old. I believe I only have one kjv.

I've got a KJV in my bookcase and there's an NIV around here someplace, but I haven't used it in awhile so I'm not sure where I left it.

No, but I have a source that gives me all the contradictions and sexist verses of the bible, so I don't need one.
