Oh, That? That’s My Tuesday Bible

Mission Network News reports on the sickening amount of bibles we have laying around compared to other countries.

I've been using the same dark blue NIV for nigh on ten years. I cannot tell you the number of times I've looked at those cool duotone NRSV's with a small modicum of jealously. And then I think, Is it more or less sinful if I'm coveting a bible over, say, a car? (neither is good)

All that to say, the cornucopia of translations contains the X-treme manga-fied, to the old school KJV, to the digital. Really though, people in other countries seem to just want one copy, why do we have--on average--nine?

Any of you have a few extra bibles laying around you wouldn't mind giving away? Is our insistence on more and better bibles even biblical? Other thoughts?
