I haven't found any Cliff Notes for the Bible, but Barron's Booknotes does have a shortened version for the new and old testament.

I relied upon those when I had to read that damn book for school. What a waste of time.

How? Bibles are free from many organizations.

Yes. They are called childrens bibles.

Here's the real short version:

Have Faith, give us your money. Come Again.

 

[ggavinmoss]

They exist. I own the Cliff's Notes for the Old Testament.

There are cliff notes for the bible as sad as that is.

I don't know if they are any good, but I know they have them for the Old and New Testament

I wonder if they have "the bible for dummies" series

If you get the cliff notes, get a Buddy Christ.


Cliff notes for the Bible, but none for Koran... hmm, I guess they don't want a price on their head.

I'll give away the ending:

God did it.

A heretic is a person who commits heresy.

Some versions can be.

Here is the King James Version.

What he said.

My interpretation:
Spoiler:







Old Testament: God creates things. God sets up lots of rules. God seems to talk with a lot of people. God is vengeful if you piss him off. God puts lots of people into his version of the Skinner box (i.e. Abraham, Joseph, Job). There are lots of songs and psalms. 1-900-psychics abound.

New Testament: God rests and delegates things to his son. Son does lots of stuff. Son builds a cult of personality and becomes like his father. The ending to the Bible is thousands of years in the making. It will terrify you with a shocking twist that no one can predict. The best book this summer or any summer. Get it now.

The proceeding was written all in light-hearted fun. no flames please.
thanks.
