Paul, I understand your arguement about worshiping the bible, but what i have noticed is that you are using the definition for the noun form of worship rather than the first verb definition, which is "To honor and love as a deity." This is the definition most people refer to when you say you worship something (ie: worship god, worship pork chops, worship sea cucumbers) I do give you that the second form of the verb worship (To regard with ardent or adoring esteem or devotion.) can be very easily confused with the feelings that many christians have toward the bible.

The thing is (and it was covered earlier) that christians aren't worshiping the bible or even the ideas the bible represents. Yes, christians do hold the words and ideas described in the bible in high regard, but the bible is intended to be used as a guide (a shop manual for life if you will). The bible is a guide that provides an example one should use to devote their life to God.

LoL, it is pretty funny that this discussion evolved from a spear tip though.
