You know you've been doing too much Nintendo shit when...

I was reading the first page of the Quran and there was a line (something like) "And man was further given a Will..."

And I *swear* I thought it said "Wii". I had to double take and read it again. I have to stop gaming, man.

That said - first two pages of the Quran are hauntingly beautiful. I'll have to read the whole thing, it's incredibly fascinating. I have the feeling when I hold this book that I have in my hands something incredibly special. I'm sure I'll get to the bits that piss me off soon. I usually do when I read this sort of thing. The Bible has moments where I just have to stop, close my eyes and meditate on the pure and shaking truth in the words. And there are other times where I want to say "FUCK YOU, ST PETER!" Which, yeah, probably isn't such a wise thing to say to the guy that is like, Jesus' best boo. But whatever, he was always jealous that Mary was so close to Jesus. Fag.

(I am so going to hell).

I'll see you there, then, because this had me LMAO.

Peter's okay. It's Paul I often want to drop kick from the top of the wailing wall.

Enjoy the Qu'ran; it is beautiful in many places. Like all sacred text, it's when people take the poetry and try to make it law that there are problems.

Problem with me is that I am a bit of a fanfic whore when it comes to the Bible and I like reading the apocryphal texts. And in some of those, he's a real jerk. So I have those moments that I have with my favourite tv shows and stuff where I go, "Hang on, did that happen in canon or in the fanfic? Bugger!"

Yes, yes indeed. As they say in Pirates of the Caribbean "It's more of a *guide* anyway!"
