Jon Orsi- The Low Fat Bible

I didn't realize until Dr. Sexson mentioned in class, that all this time I thought I was digging in deep, into every written word of the bible, that I was all along reading the low-fat version.
Working at the school library, I had two driving reasons for not going out and buying the text from book store.
1) if you think this school skimps on spending. you should see how they pay their employees.
2) I know that we, and all libraries for that matter should have a copy of the best selling book of all time.
So I got what I thought was the King James edition, but I didn't realize that it was the "king james edition- for students."
All this while, I've been reading passages from the (diet*) Bible and then reading Plotz's take on them afterward so as not to unearth anything ahead of time. And all these things kept coming up in Plotz that up until not I assumed I had read and not remembered, and it always seemed to be the wildest happenings I was unable to recall- sort of like black out drinking applied to the bible: "Wow, I actually read that? I don't remember any of that"
So I missed Onin all together, most of the details of Exodus 34, My Sodom and Gomorrah lasted about a paragraph and was suspiciously pg-13. And on top of that all, I don't feel like any of the "boring monotony" of lists and genealogy was omitted.
At one point after this unveiling that my copy was both diluted and dull, i damned this book and then accidentally ripped it.
 I don't know if either is a sin, but I do know that i'm getting a library fine for defacing material.
