Follow on Google News | ![]() ‘Bedtime Bible Stories – Explicit!’ Is All Set For An Easter LaunchCome Easter and you shall get to witness a retelling of one of the holiest books in the world and stories that more than a billion Christians have believed in without question for two thousand years.
By: Bedtime Bible Stories- Explicit! Have you ever questioned why biblical stories are so gory and filled with violence? There is talk about genocide, rape and murder. There are cruel intentions and horrid acts. Yet, you never get to hear about Christian fundamentalism. All you get to explore is how the religion has paved the way for a peaceful world, while history indicates quite to the contrary. The reality is that Christian fundamentalism is not talked about. Truth is never told, discussed or published. There have been calculated attempts to hush up all talks of truth that may not be kind to fundamentalists who have tweaked the holy book and ancient accounts of history for their own interest. ‘Bedtime Bible Stories – Explicit!’ is a book that mines out and illustrates some of the lesser known bible stories and verses. You would get to read of Adam and Eve and the popular tales of Noah’s Ark among others but what you would also explore are some facts that you haven’t been exposed to. The book is geared for an Easter Launch on and has been authored by award winning activist, Joey Kirkman along with JD Shapiro, best known as the screenwriter of ‘Robin Hood: Men in Tights’. Joey Kirkman had been awarded the Certificate of Acknowledgement for Leadership from the North Carolina House of Representatives in March of 2013 for activism during the 2012 Amendment One debate. He is a strong advocate of LGBT and human rights, marriage equality and stands for anti-theism. A father of three daughters, Joey Kirkman is the creator of Bully the Bullies Show of which he was also the co-host and executive producer. Joey has also been associated with The History Channel’s “Ten Things I Bet You Didn’t Know” with Henry Rollins and Newton County Protest “This Guy Has NO Teeth” on CNN. According to the authors,”‘Bedtime Bible Stories – Explicit’ was hatched out of an exasperation with how America's religious leaders manipulate the media and the public for their own ends. It's a game in which they act as both the bully and the victim.” In a world that is fascinated by history and religion and is yet averse to unravel the truth, this book is certainly going to create ripples.
