Serious literature: dull shit for a long while, then something amazing.
Pulp literature: a lot of excitement, but nothing big.

The holy bible is a collection of fairy tales by ancient peasants, for ancient peasants. It's not exciting at all.

a collection of stories interpreted and reinterpreted throughout a people's history with a unique and changing perspective on the world that can be followed and identified with allowing the reader to share the triumphs and tragedies the anguish and uncertainty with each new event that precipitates a theological reimagining is more exciting than some shitty story that either echoes or fails to disrupt a cultural creed with constructed characters and contrived drama

the holy bible is amazing
100% of non-homosexuals agree
