Bible study for atheists

VastLeft's project. In the first week, some exegesis of Genesis:

There are some curious gaps in the story. How do Adam and Eve know what dying is (Genesis 3:3)? Or what bread is (Genesis 3:19)? At the very least, those would have been interesting subplots.

Actually, the hidden agenda here is to test the new module that autogenerates links from Bible citations in chapter:verse format. Just to make the Fundies' heads explode, the links go to a parallel version of the Bible: In the left-hand pane, the King James version, and on the right-hand pane, many, many, many other of the other English-language versions.

My personal favorite is Matthew 23:27 . So a propos.

Beautiful literature, though, eh?

NOTE As with any complex, historical text, there are many scholarly technologies, among them visualizations of the curious pleasures of the text.
