Ignore it. What else does one do with nonsense?

Well, as a Jew, I would do nothing with it because the New Testament doesn't mean anything to me. I don't say that in a pejorative way...I have nothing against Jesus whatsoever. However, I agree with Ghandi: "Mahatma Gandhi is one of the most respected leaders of modern history. A Hindu, Ghandi nevertheless admired Jesus and often quoted from the Sermon on the Mount. Once when the missionary E. Stanley Jones met with Ghandi he asked him, "Mr. Ghandi, though you quote the words of Christ often, why is that you appear to so adamantly reject becoming his follower?"
Ghandi replied, "Oh, I don't reject your Christ. I love your Christ. It's just that so many of you Christians are so unlike your Christ."

There are lots of things you could do.
Make an anagram of it.
Use the paper to make a hat, blow your nose on it, or start a fire.
I know that this is a hard concept, but if I do not believe in god, then I do not believe that the bible is the word of god. It is just words. I might as well get my directions from Moby Dick or War and Peace.
Unless you have some non-biblical evidence to back this up all you have are words that have no authority.

If someone is not a Christian why would they do anything with a book in the bible written by someone converted to Christianity? I have the utmost respect for Jesus. I believe in a creator force. I do not however, base my faith belief's on Paul.

Ignore it? It's from the bible and I know that men wrote the bible. Men with egos and a need to control people. That is no more the words of God than are my words typed here.

I do my best to not do an unjust act as defined by my religion.
What most Christians consider to be my major sin is NOT my living a law-abiding life (Basically equivalent to all but one of the "Noahide Laws"), but my belief AND WORSHIP of the Hellenic Gods.
My Gods do not consider their worship to be sinful for their worshippers......

The same thing I do with the rest of the bible, nothing. I figured out a while ago that all the stories in the bible are just fictional to try and get people to follow out of fear.

I laugh, much like I do with all the other basless threats the Bible has to offer.
I look for more than fear in a religion.

Realize that it is just Bronze Age wishful thinking.

umm, what is anybody suposed to do with it? I believe in God, but I do not claim that the Bible is the complete written word of God.
