a thought has occured to me that could any book at all be used in the same way as the bible? Could people read prohceys into it etc?
I remember the Wilkie Collins book " the moonstone" theres a character in that story who belives that reading Robinson Crusoe can predict the future, thus he reads it every day and claims on numerous occasions that the book was correct in its predictions!
Is the bible just what mankind has made of it or read in to it? Could any of us write a wine fueled epic and say 1000 years from now have people claiming its profecys have changed their lives etc etc?
