you never read tolkein, not even his most simplified story
for me reading hobbit was a literal day of reading
but on the other hand, i read Mises Human Action twice over a period of about 2 months, that thing is literally as thick as the bible, and i still haven't read the bible, the bible is much harder to read than Mises
lol! for me, anyway
mises was only hard for me with all the latin funny words he used
I tried to read the Bible once. All I remember was pages and pages of βA begat Bβ, βB begat Cβ, βC begat Dβ and so on and so forth.
yeah, i haven't even finished genesis in my attempt of recent, it is very tedious
Bible can be a tough read but itβs worth it.
I had to grow up & wake up A LOT before it really started making sense.
my issue with this reading is that my livelihood depends on me reading these flickering screens, and after i am done with that i don't want to do more reading
been trying to dial back the screen time... got lotta things to sort out, i live in paradise here and i hardly stick my head outside the window
I also very old fashioned in these thinks i mean my long retired dad is using a e-reader, while i love books.just comparing things, you know.
As for holy scriptures they all got something, but as often it is what you think, that forms out your reality.
Someone else into βbooksβ ?
Real page turning books > digital readers IMHO.
But audio works well if too busy.
If you want to try again, try starting in the New Testament and then going back to read the Old Testament. A Bible reading plan or study group can also be helpful.
Thereβs a Nostr Bible study meeting on Cornychat every Tuesday at 8:30 pm EST (literally just wrapped it up tonight), youβre welcome to join if you want!
