You will have no excuses for when you met your maker! God does not fail, we do. He was there for you the WHOLE time, but you keep rejecting him.

Well, I have read that the most stolen book from libraries is "The Guinness Book of Records".


It is hard to come up with a solid list because you have to think about where are the books being stolen from. From bookstores, from libraries, from hotel rooms? There is no inclusive list for all of these sources. If you include hotel rooms, that will skew the data because it is just about the only book available in the room. Libraries and bookstores would give a better idea because they have a lot more books for the thieves to choose from. However, how long does it take for a library to realize a book has been stolen? It will probably be a bit longer than a bookstore (which keeps careful track of inventory for money purposes). Also, do you count non-returned books as stolen?

The simple fact is it is all guessing when you come down to it unless you have a site that lists how many libraries and bookstores and how many bibles over what amount of time and compares that to the theft of other books. I have not been able to find any site that gives that kind of data.

For now, I am treating the bible is the most stolen book as an urban legend. When someone can produce something a bit more scientific then I can change my mind.

Not true. The most stolen book is not the Bible. The most stolen book is the Thomas Brothers Guide maps book.

Sure, there's nothing a Christian loves more than breaking the commandments of his god and steal his most holy book. I'm not at all surprised by this. I find it funny as s**t that you would steal a book that says THOU SHALL NOT TO STEAL in it. Utterly hilarious.

The Bible is really never stolen. It is there for the taking by anyone and everyone who needs it. When it comes to God's word, it is placed in the right place at the right time.

We may think it's stolen, because we are materialistic people, but in the grand scheme of things, if someone who needs it takes it, it is because it was meant to be.

I would have guessed the bible as there is always a copy in hotel rooms which are easy to pinch.

Oh and get off your high horse. People are entitled to their opinion and you have no right to impose yours on us!!!!

So why do you ask a question if you are not interested in what peoples opinions are? Bigot......! Oh, and sending me abusive emails isn't big, clever or very CHRISTIAN is it!!!!

Bible.
If a Henry Potter book was in every hotel room, it would be number one.
Or a Sport mag, or even a PC mag.
You can sell a Bible for $.25, hard bound.

Yes I can believe it. If they only look up Exodus or Deuteronomy and see that one of the commandments is not to steal it is quite ironic.By the way , most people are hypocrites from time to time and let us be forgiving and show them the way without judgment and with love in imitation of the Good Shepherd, Jesus Christ. To him be glory forever. Amen.
