The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men.

Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children.

And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers.

And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

The Bible isn't a novel, it's the truth so accurately revealed it is better than all novels.

But as far as fiction goes, I'd have to say the best I've read was Les Miserables.

Re: Which is the best novel ever written ?
Being a sci-fi fan The Stand is my all time favorite read. Any of the Dark Tower books were well worth the time spent, tho the first 3 were especially good. Stephen King, for a liberal idiot, has a real knack for story telling. I think he is a heavy pot smoker and the weed is his muse. Thinking of books like Misery and The Shining really make me appreciate his dark, twisted ability to paint a picture in ones mind. His newer stuff seems to not pack the punch of his older stories, tho I have to admit I haven't read any of his newer stuff after say Bag of Bones. Desperation and The Regulators are some of the newer ones that are worth a glance. I wouldn't consider the Bible a novel, and wouldn't waste my time with a Harry Potter book. I did read The Lord of the Rings while in jail in my youth and found that to be very enjoyable, tho if I recall correctly it is written in an early English style that was hard to follow, been awhile tho, I may not be remembering that one correctly. The Bible and a wonderful Christian woman, who I was foolish enough to let get away, are the reasons I'm not still in jail, so I have to look at that book as a life altering read, anyone struggling with life would do well to open it up and find what The Lord has to offer them.

 Quoting: Foresight


Any written work is a person's interpretation of a subject, truth can be very objective. The Bible is no different. But if it was to help someone thru a difficult period in ones life I see no problem with that. My beliefs in regards to God are probably a little different from the mainstream ideology, but we are all allowed our own opinions. My only problem with religion is the mass murder done by fanatics in the name of God, there is no justifying that sort of behaviour. But I simply can find no fault in anything that brings positive benefits into someone's life. I believe in a higher power, creator sort of God and view the Bible as a book of parables, a guide to live ones life by, tho it does portray violence in a positive light in The Old Testament, I think that reflects the difference between society then and now. I also see mainstream religion as a scam. Tithing seems to me like a person's attempt to charge someone for salvation. And the idea of a man being ones only path to heaven is very suspect. But that does not affect my personal belief in God, ones relationship with God is between you and God, no man can provide or prevent you from having a relationship with God.

From a US point of view either:

Moby Dick
or

Those two are maybe even the best Novels ever written in the English Language.

I think maybe Michail Bulgakov is my all time favorite.

Every single book he wrote is a masterpiece imho, but of
course 'The Master and Margarita' was always the Big One.
