Quote from Anima

why does the cover look like it's shitty fanart?

Because the bible is a shitty fanfic.

Quote from KennEH!

It's not for adults or people who actually read the Bible. The comic was made to get people into reading it. mostly a young audience that rather read comics than an over thousand page book full of rules and stuff.

Even though I'm a young Christian, I wouldn't want to read that. The bible is supposed to teach things by studying it, not act like a story. Besides, a lot of the lessons' meaning. metaphors, and the footnotes (like on different translations for a word, corrections of mistranslations, etc.) would be lost. Wiki said it follows Jesus' life, but there's a gap from his childhood to his thirties in the Gospels. How is the mangaka going to depict that? Lol, "caption: and Jesus grew up." Plus, the highlight of the gospels are his teachings. What are they going to draw, him talking for fifty pages without many actions? Oh, and I agree with Anima - the art looks terrible. I wonder who came up with that idea of making the bible into a manga.

I do agree on the fact it does look like it sucks, but I don't see were following Jesus life is off? There has been more than one movie and T.V. show atht has odne just that and hasn't failed (some did though). I was just pointing out that the idea was a total lost.

itch because my name sounds so cool, oh well.. I like satanism, not religious fanatik.

but that manga is religious fanatism.

I find it odd how this thread turned into Jesus bashing. Lol

ATHEISM FTW!!!)

Sorry if I offended you, I can't help but be biased and I can't respect religions in general because of the amount of sheer stupidity that comes with religion. (btw religious beliefs really deserve no more respect than political beliefs)

Shows how much you actually know about Christians. It was Christian friends of mine who got me into manga and Christian rock is a growing genre not only in Christian book stores, so I'm obviously not the only one who listens to groups like Superchick, Toby Mac and Pillar.

I know, that was a joke. I was making fun of the old stereotypical Christian tenet of how Christians think comics and rock music are for Satan. Of course even the most conservative and unchanging groups must change after all. My friend plays Christian rock at his house all the time, and even on occasion Christian rap (which I might add, is some of the sickest but also funniest stuff I've ever heard).
