> That's true about the Bible. No man could say as much as God. How dare anyone compare the Greatest Book Of All with a fantasy novel! The Bible is one of the most wonderful works of God! How could anyone be so blasphemous?
It wasn't blasphemous. You can compare the Bible with a filet-o-fish if you want -- what matters is the conclusions you draw. The purpose of the comparison was to illustrate how some things are worth saying in an unusually large number of words. If anything the analogy was a testament to the Bible's importance, as there was the implication that it wasn't guilty of -- as Jordan was accused of being -- overly verbose.
