An 'abridged' version of the Bible is being released in Britain today.
Publishers say the 100-minute Bible is ideal for those who do not have time to read the original.
In the beginning there was the Bible and to read it chapter and verse would take months.
Now it has been turned into a slimmed down page turner in an effort to get more people to read it.

I just had a mental image of the chapter on Jesus "There was this bloke right, who was like born in this manger thing and then he became a carpenter and ended up as a caterer.":lol:
