Bible Porn


Outside of showing a friend of mine from El Salvador my collection, there's really no specific reason why I thought I'd post my collection of Bibles: Catholic Study (English), Vulgate New Testament (Latin), a Protestant Spanish one, a Protestant Haitian one, a Catholic Spanish one, as well as a Protestant (I think, since I believe the Orthodox have around the same number of books as do the Catholic ones) Serbian one. The last two books to the right are Benedictine Daily Prayer and the Autumn days for The Divine Hours. Not pictured are several meditations by Catholic Saints (Augustine, Teresa de Ávila, Thomas à Kempis) and a few books by the late Bishop Fulton Sheen. And so concludes a look at the religious side of my library. And yes, I can read passages in almost every single one of those languages, which surely is a sign of my madness, no?

lol...'Bible Porn'? Sounds a little oxymoronic. Not to mention slightly blasphemous!

I know, but it was a play off of my "Book Porn" posts. When I put the two together, I chuckled a bit and thought it'd make for a catchy title :P
