a bit late to the party, but i find her gesture a bit passive aggressive. she obviously knows you are non-god. giving someone a bible, is like buying someone underwear. only someone you are very close to can do that. she knows, then, that you are not in posession of said item. you dont buy someone the Lord of the Rings omnibus if they have it already. wtf are you going to do with another one? thus, you buy someone a LOTR omnibus if you know they dont have one, or you are hoping they would read it, and gush about it, like you do. another Tolkien convert.
you follow?
i have not a clue where my bible may be. i suspect i stuffed it in a box with my barbies and teddybears. it must be in the possession of my stepsisters then. considering i fell off the religious bus in my mid-teens, i might even have stuffed the pages in my compost project.
imagine the pissed-off-ness of a pre-teen, opening a square box for their b’day, and it does not contain a bb-gun, but a bible. jay.
i should have been clever enough to conceal some xmen comics within it’s pages. then church would not have been such a mind-numbing experience.
