The Holy Bible for Atheist

"This Bible is for the government of the people, by the people and for the people'"
-John Wycliffe (first author of the Holy Bible in English)

Premise: “Admiring tales in the Bible to master your own destiny.”

Perspective: Christians don’t own the Bible, it’s everybody’s book, whether we want to believe it or not.

Objective: Taking only what’s necessary from biblical characters to establish our own path.

Purpose: Providing stories of biblical characters facing everyday challenges, so humans can overcome from someone else stories.

Review: The Holy Bible for Atheist is written from the Atheist perspective. The book maintains the original tales and characters, but has edited out the faith, worship, miracles, and names of God epithets. Instead of printed scripture verses, the author intertwines the biblical character stories with secular examples and strategic insight. The author doesn’t attempt to convert the atheist; in fact, his goal is to compel atheist who may enjoy biblical characters without religious epitomes or moral views. Allowing the viewer not to feel judged or guilty, but to apply their imagination for creating their own outcome.

Concept: An alternative for audiences who want toned down non-religious version.

Description: The Holy Bible for Atheist is geared towards audiences who desire to escape the complicated verses and get into the meat of the stories. The published paperback is a compact pocket book, containing 66 pages, with 6 chapters. It’s due to be released in the winter of 2011, near Thanksgiving Day.

Summary: The printed edition dissects the stories of lesser-known characters like Deborah and Gideon, as well as other minor individuals. And avoids tackling main Christian disciples or Old Testament Major Prophets judging the world.

“It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves.” -William Shakespeare

I Can Do Bad All By Myself!

"I can do bad all by myself" -Tyler Perry (from his film)


The book of Judges in the Bible speaks of how Deborah, the prophetess, judged and led the people of Israel into a major victory, by taking charge of the army from Barak, the commander. Barak, the commander of the military forces was like the executive, and Deborah would have been considered an associate of the company. As an associate, Deborah organized projects for Barak, that he would get credit for. Barak lost self-confidence and faltered under pressure from organizing the project plans himself, but he still wanted credit for someone else stepping up to take charge. Barak would have brainstormed with his top generals and commanders in the boardroom, about putting together a winning project. Except, Deborah as the associate- managed the whole operation, by stepping up to use her gifts and experience sent from the Almighty.

Of course, Barak had talent, but he collapsed when his associate Deborah, would not allow herself to be taken advantage of, like a servant, by laying all the credit at the feet of an incompetent procrastinator, who did not have the “by any means necessary” attitude to complete the project himself. So, she promoted herself, and quit the associate position to run her own company of men. Deborah took people from the old company that would join her new venture. Or you could say she bought out the company and ran it herself.
