...*randomish* I had a friend who once told these Japanese kids about Jesus...and they thought that he was saying that Jesus was a zombie.
...which is awesome. xD
Also, I mostly just find this weird. They have children's versions of the Bible so kids can understand, and they have the adult versions. Why do they need a manga version? To put the Bible into pop culture? Uh, no. |

It's actually been done before...I think there are 3 or 4 "manga" versions of the bible/bible stories. |

You could easily make some good mangas from the stories in the Torah and the Midshariam Parables. Hell, the story about King David, his son, and Beth Sheeba would make for an interesting hentai. |

Above all else the bible provides interesting stories if nothing else. People ask why should a manga be made? Heck I ask WHY NOT? |

Some people think that the Bible needs a periodic reinvention, and with the manga craze, there's the format to adapt to. Don't know if it will be any more effective than the Japanese government's release of their economic figures in manga format, but it's worth a try. |
