The Skeptic's Annotated Bible View on Amazon View on iTunes (iPhone) View on iTunes (iPad) |
This "bible" has the entire King James Bible text presented from the point of view of a non-believer with organized notes and interesting criticism.
Dr. Michael Shermer, Skeptic magazine’s Founding Publisher of and the Executive Director of the Skeptics Society was quoted as saying that The Skeptic's Annotated Bible is an astounding achievement, sharing that while he has an entire bookshelf of the real bible as well as biblical commentaries, appendices and concordances, the SAB is the best biblical research tool he has ever discovered.
Julia Sweeney, a writer and performer known for works such as "God Said Ha!" and "Letting Go of God" mentioned that she has been waiting for such a book all her life, and is happy that all the stories of the craziness, violence and profanity as well as the sublime can now easily found all in one book.
Dr. Peter Boghossian from Portland State University who authored "A Manual for Creating Atheists" also said that the SAB is an irreplaceable presentation of the bible - one that does not cover up the contradictions, absurdities, misogyny and contradictions that make the "good book" not a “good” book at all. He even went so far as to say that it is the only book he keeps on his desk.
