I desverse that, but I still stand by decision, The Bible would be hard to vote against due to religious reasons. _________________

I have no problem voting against the Bible. As a work o fiction, it's poorly paced, poorly written, and the motives of the main character change from chapter to chapter.  _________________Buy my books! http://michaelaventrella.com
