http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2013/11/ ... s-fiction/It's just a guy blogging so it's ok that it's Fox News.
Personally I find it funny. The guy mentions that it's in the same section as Hunger Games and 50 Shades and I thought, of the 3 only 2 of those are actually humanly possible.

None of the above.
Appropriately labeled.

Yeah, bigotry is only cool if it's against something you don't like yourself. Everything else is bad.

are you suggesting the bible is fact? if you want to make the case that there should be a religious text section i'd probably agree, but don't call it nonfiction lol
and fwiw i didn't see any bigotry here, except in maybe zanchief's post. is that what you're referring to, or am i missing something?

Dogging on someone's beliefs and/or belief system is bigotry.
Calling it fictional, is exactly that, an attempted assault on someone's beliefs.
Saying it's anything less than that is disingenuous at best.

It was all fun and games but you are now being insulting Zan, that book does not belong in a fiction section and you know that perfectly well.

Hey, like I said, bigotry is only cool if you're on board with it, right Zan?

i've never been to costco so i don't know the extent/variability of their book sections
but in the absence of any categorization beyond fiction/nonfiction, sorry dudes but the bible goes in the fiction section. would you all be as butthurt if the quran or the BG were in the fiction section? somehow i doubt it
for the record i identify as christian

What makes it non-fiction or Children's (the other Costco categories)?
I'm open to you helping me understand.
But please, differentiate The Bible from The Iliad?

http://www.namelesstavern.net/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=21260I suppose when you want to present logic to undermine someones religion it's ok, Ganz, but when we do it it's disrespectful douchbaggery.
Funny, I think that's a hypocrisy on top of a hypocrisy.

Ganzo I know how you feel man. You think it's wrong that the bible is labeled fiction rather than religion and that it's disrespectful. I think this thread should be labeled holy discussion rather than cap's alehouse and I feel your pain now. These guys just don't get it bro.

Well if you said Chinese people are stupid. That's bigotry. If you said I don't like some specific factually relevant thing that is happening in China, that is not bigotry. You get it? This is not an issue of bigotry at all.

So by this response I take it you cannot explain why The Bible should be non-fiction any more than The Iliad.
Makes sense to me.
Way to represent your beliefs by calling people disrespectful assholes rather than ignoring them.
