I doubt you actually read those things, much less having read them in any sort of scholarly way.
Even in your claim to the contrary you betray ignorance. For example, the Torah is merely the
first five books of the Bible, also called the Pentateuch. If you were not ignorant of the various
scriptures that comprise the Sacred Texts of these religions, the ...[text shortened]... hat
specifying having read the Bible would render mentioning the Torah as redundant.

I was referring to the New Testament, not the Old Testament. And yes, I did read the Bible, Torah (it was a scroll that I read, and in Hebrew ... yes, I read Hebrew), and the Qur'an.

But to tell you the honest truth, I can't remember most of what I read, but I do remember wiping my arse with pages from one.

Well, that's interesting, because the Torah doesn't refer to the entire 'Old Testament,' just the
first five books of it. So, if by 'Bible' you oddly meant 'New Testament' then you weren't really
referring to all of the books people call Holy anyway.

Given your lack of fluency in the simple nomenclature, I have difficulty believing that you read
any of these texts in any sort of meaningful way.

Hey kiddo, just do a little search on my posting. I'm a little more informed than the average
reader about the Bible, and I do a little more than make pot shots at books that people call
Scripture for cheap laughs.

Here, let me do it for you:

I'm not a professional Biblical scholar, but I'm pretty well informed, butch. And, at least,
I know the difference between 'Old Testament' and 'Torah' and between 'Bible' and 'New Testament.'

Did Nemesio make you feel like an ass? Answer carefully; this is a test.

Wrong question. Right one would be: Has Nemesio owned you?

Ha! I'd almost forgotten about that book.

Wasn't really high on my list of favs either.
