Kindle, The Bible and The Koran

Posted by Steve Published in Books, Scripture

I ran across a fascinating article on Ray Fowler’s blog. Seems as if the new Kindle software upgrade allows you to not only view your own highlights within the book you’re reading, but the highlights of others as well. Using the feature Fowler compiled the most highlighted texts in both the Bible and the Koran. Can you guess the most highlighted biblical texts? Themes?

See the top Bible verses.

See the top Koran verses.

Very interesting. Very hard to remain tolerant and non-judgemental when the 2nd most popular Koran verse is a call to kill opposers.

I’m going to find my antacid.
