    No merit with the individuals of the world, really. Selling numbers reach that high probably due to boxes and boxes of copies with pages the thickness of tracing paper ordered by local churches and distributed for a few dollars or for free. But I do like the Bible, I’m thankful it’s around. It’s the national epic of the jewish people, has a anthropological interest component to it and it can be serious as well as self-indulgent if it wants to. The Book of Numbers is banana duck-taped to the wall in art exhibit level of trolling. Or the opposite ha.
