We live in the day and age of a million bibles. That is small “b” These are actual book titles or Magazine covers:

• The Style Bible: The 11 Rules for Building a Complete and Timeless Wardrobe

• The Cat Bible: Everything Your Cat Expects You to Know

• The Cannabis Grow Bible: The Definitive Guide to Growing Marijuana for Recreational and Medical Use.

• The Body Shape Bible

They come in the form of magazines and newspapers. Magazines are the “how to have happiness; how to achieve you individual heaven here on earth.”

They even have their own tenants of faith and ideas of heaven.

• Live Your Best Life: A Treasury of Wisdom, Wit, Advice, Interviews, and Inspiration from Oprah.

• Cosmo Girl: 50 ways to get sexy hair; five moves to a hotter body; and what your boyfriend tells his friends after you ‘hook up’

Some people’s idea of heaven is a faster car, better computer, games, wine, beer, a better body, better fashion, popularity, celebrity, a fine cigar, the list goes on and on.
