I loved it! I am not a religious person in any sense of the word. But the bible is a very good guide for living, especially the ten commandments. If it was good enough to influence the founding fathers it is good enough today. The only thing that makes me roll my eyes is when someone insists to me that the bible is the literal word of God. NAW....but it is a very good read.

You should try reading The Bible more often,
You just might learn something new.

The Bible is this amazing collection of writings that encompasses virtually every subject known to man - not just a moral code, history book, marriage instructions, science topics and a path of salvation for sinful mankind to gain forgiveness with his Creator but everything else in between. So you don't think that it is the literal word of God? You would think that if it wasn't, it would be full of errors but so far none have ever been found. Why would that be unless in fact it is the inspired Word of God. Here a challenge to you. Find one (yup, just one) irrefutable error in the Bible. My only request is that you don't bring forth examples from some phony baloney translation written by who know who. Stick to something solid like the King James Version. Incidentally, scripture itself says in numerous places that ALL scripture was inspired by God. It also says that God is infallible - which pretty much makes it impossible for scripture to have errors. Good luck in your search.
