Why?
Every single hotel I've ever stayed in has at least one bible in the room. I don't seem to understand why.

James' Starbucks Hangout
Grab a hot grande latte, a Tazo® Tea, or maybe a blended Frappuccino®! Don't forget the tasty pastry or try the new hot Panini! Enjoy two free hours of Wi-Fi to registered card members, and unlimited fun! This is the closest you can get to being at a Starbucks while on GT!
Glucose-Fructose Based Solids and Carbonated Cola Beverages
Yeah.. I don't understand the point of it either. And really... if they're going to provide that, they should provide a copy of the Quran as well. Side by side in the drawer.![]()
"En Unión y Libertad".... lo estoy buscando... un día, me encontrará.
High Fructose Corn Syrup
You know what they say about it?That it's made from corn, chemically altered, directly linked to hypertension, CVD and liver damage; and effectively causes type II diabetes and obesity?
Get the facts - from a medical professional - not the Corn Refiners' Association.
Doesn't happen often in the UK, and I'm glad, frankly. I think they should provide copies of Little Red Riding Hood and Harry Potter also whenever they provide bibles.
Don't remember seeing one, but i don't really stay in hotels.
"Who the hell are you?!... And where the fuck are my clothes!"
Ask those bloody GideonsI find the idea somewhat irksome, but it's not something that makes me uncomfortable or anything.
Try the Zen Pizza Parlour... they'll make you one with everything.

It's just always been done. Now they put the book of Mormon in hotels too.

They're actually quite common in the U.K. if you look for them; i can't remember the people who do it (apparently Gideons, going by Vardwhich i think is right), but they go around Travelodges etc and they put the little red Bibles in the bedside cabinets. They used to come to my school once a year and present all the year... 7's? with a copy each.
I think their reasoning was something like so that in case anyone happened to find themselves in a travelodge/motel/whatever, going through a rough patch and needing someone to turn to they'd always have a Bible there for them to read.
