every hotel and motel room in the united states has a bible in it. that's a lot of bibles. and as >>4360 said, no one who has a bible reads the bible, because that is the quickest way for someone to become atheist so it is actively discouraged by religious leaders.

>most read
How do you know that people read the books they purchase instead of just putting them on a shelf as display?
I think this would be more accurate if it said "Most purchased books" rather than "Most read books"

Ah, I may be able to answer this. Dedicated Muslims would have one decorated Quran, and hang it on a wall with a string so that it isn't touching the ground/table. There is no giving people Qurans like people do with Bibles. It's more of a decoration than actual reading stuff. A similar thing that happens is giving people calendars with Quran verses and other religious stuff.

I always found it funny that people think War and Peace is a hard read when it's actually not a hard read at all. It's just really long.

The dominant anglo strains of christianity are protestant and thus far bigger on making people read the bible. Its a catholic take.
