Now that the Bible is bundled, does it no longer count at the most printed book in history?

 

I think that's fair. Whenever anyone claims the bible is the biggest selling book I'm just going to nod sagely, then add, 'But it doesn't count, it's bundled.'

Hoo boy... bring on the Quran fanboys.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

So, would a shop-made pack like this actually sell in Poland? Any Polish VGCers care to explain the local sales climate surrounding First Communion? The idea of buying a bible with a PS3 is alien to me, but I understand other cultures see things very differently.

Oh and I thought that Christians weren't supposed to be commercialized about their religion. I guess that went down the drain with the commercialization of Christmas, Easter, and pretty much any Christian holiday (which were all borrowed dates from other religions).

Off topic: Anyone else getting sick of seeing the end of days type programs on History Channel about 2012.. I can't wait till 2013 comes and we can all push that bullshit aside.

I'm not sure who is doing this.

And if this is just a Christian store who threw in a few Bible, what's wrong with that?

It's not some Christian Store it's Polish equvalent of let's say Gamestop when it comes to game market coverage (but AFAIK gamestop doesn't have huge music, fragrance, press and books sections)

I guess there is nothing wrong if they are giving the Bible away for free. I just try to view religion as non commercialized but I suppose that is impossible at this day in age. Attaching it to a video game system doesn't seem right to me. It isn't like anyone is going to put down the ps3 to read the Bible.
