What was it?
If you find yourself wanting to mock, please refrain from the usual schoolyard bullying if possible.

Regularly.
Though I know the bible well, as an Ex-Christian atheist, I will always check the phrasing and the context before using a quotation or replying to the use of a biblical passage.
Most recently in Acts 4:32-35, on communism, or at least communality, as the earliest form of Christianity.

I am a atheist.
I have read the bible, i used to be forced into scripture class. Even since realising the joy of free thinking and standing up for myself i have read the bible. And it wasn't because of this site. I read it to find the fictional parts and participate in a debate- which the atheists won i have to say! We won it it because we researched the other side as much as our own but the christians refused to find out about our beliefs or why we are free thinkers.

Yes and I also often pointed out verses here for Christians to read since I found out that they don't know much about the bible but only know those things and verses taught in their Sunday church.

No never... I'd never waste my time consulting the Author: unknown's Book called "bible"
If I mock as you call it although I would say that I'm simply stating the way I percive things in this life and at the same time revealing the so obvious weak-points in any religion based on non provable facts, I'd do this from my heart and mind...
The only part I read completely from the bible is the Apocalypse... I find the artistical way of exposing a worlds end soothing...
Tell me something if you really are a Christian...
Can you prove to me that Jesus was not the son of the Invisible, Undetectable, Flying Spaguetti Monster?
Wikipedia=Pastafarianism
Why is it that you waste your time with something that gives you so many questions and no answer only guesses?
It hurts me so to see people with so much potential losing their chance to fanatism...

I read the Bible as a teen, but I'm reading it again because of R&S.
I can't find anything to mock in this question, it seems pretty straightforward.

My mind was made up about the Bible being a man made book before I came to YA and it hasn't changed and it never will. God is outside of religion.

always, basicly everytime I get on here. Which is why I like this site because it helps me study my bible, kjv. But to name them would be a lot, usually the ones that talk about sinning(repenting), Eph. 2:8,9 uhh john 14:6, leviticus (gays), and some others mainly scripture about salvation.
EDIT: Oh wait "Non-Christians" oops, well it's still true.

I have read the verses of Bible from this site:
http://www.sultan.org/articles/QScience.html
It has the most authentic information and does not clash with science.
I would suggest you also to have a look at it and if found interesting and good, pass it to others.

Really, no. And I'm certainly not mocking. I haven't seen anything here that would even make me think that there might be a god (or gods).

Yup... to google something that someone quoted. It's been 2 decades since I've 'picked up' a bible.
I was right.... 'puter says, nooooo.
