I like it, very good point. :)
Hows this one as well.
If religion is meant to fill you with peace and understanding, why is it the cause of most wars?

How dare you could say that the bible is the most stolen book. Are you not ashame of yourself for saying that way?
Dan 12:10 Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.
Gen 13:13 But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly.
Gen 18:23 And Abraham drew near, and said, Wilt thou also destroy the righteous with the wicked?
Exo 23:1 Thou shalt not raise a false report: put not thine hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness.
Exo 23:7 Keep thee far from a false matter; and the innocent and righteous slay thou not: for I will not justify the wicked.
Deu 15:9 Beware that there be not a thought in thy wicked heart, saying, The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand; and thine eye be evil against thy poor brother, and thou givest him naught; and he cry unto the LORD against thee, and it be sin unto thee.

The Bible would not supply a extensive type for the Magi. and despite if it did, they could have traveled with servants, bodyguards, %. animals, achievable a spouse or 2, babies and extra. it could have been a huge caravan with various hundred human beings in it. Their arrival is stated to have in basic terms concern in the process the city of Jerusalem. 3 adult adult males on camels does not have completed that the concept there have been 3 magi comes from the certainty that they provided 3 presents to the new child Jesus. it could have been clever to assume some sort of a modern from each and each traveling dignitary. So 3 presents ought to truly mean that there have been 3 Magi.

I know of a man who "stole" a Gideon Bible from a hotel, and ended up being saved as a result, and he now helps support the Gideons in their ministry.
You are hung up on the letter of the law, which blinds you to the spirit of the law.
Don't look to the ten commandments for understanding; look to the Two Great Commandments.

Probably because the Bible is the book in highest circulation in the history of the world. It's commonly stolen because it's common.

I watched a TV show about the Gideons. Those Bibles are there for people to read while staying away from home. They do not get upset if they are taken, it means that they were needed.

No.
I think OMG is refering to those Bibles left in hotel rooms by the Gideons.
Those are MEANT to be taken.

Where do you get your facts? Seriously, I was not aware of it.
Stolen from whom? Bible printers? Why steal one when you can get one for free?
Weird.

Stealing is simply wrong. God said "Thou shalt not steal".
