I need the whole of the Bible, all in one raw text file, one verse per line.


The Gutenberg project hosts a raw text version, but it isnt one verse per line, and Im not about to go through 100,000 lines of text removing extraneous newlines... [http://forums.massassi.net/html/frown.gif]

I'm really glad they didn't have you write the first Bible. Although, then again, it would've fit on a fourth of a page and GBK wouldn't have the problem he has now...

This is what I need, unfortunately its only Genesis.


I got that data out of a MDB file that shipped with a demo of MediaShout (the demo only includes Genesis and John). A friend of mine has the full version of the program, so I should be able to get the full MDB from him.


Thanks anyway, guys.

Haven't been there in a while! Heh, best I not go there. I tend to get into fights with both the 'Overzealous, I'm right because my pastor/priest told me so' Christans and the 'There is no God, I have to always be right because my ego driven world will crash to a halt if I admit I'm wrong' athiests (sp?).

Thing of it is, I wish they all had this World Religions class I am currently in. My teacher and I have some great conversations, and are quite cut from the same cloth, except I am a Christan and he is a Panthiest. But he has a PHD in world religions, and unlike most with their preconceived notions, has a handle on what each religion is really about, and doesn't judge them based on some wacko members. First day of class he said "If you are oversensitive about your faith - there is the door. I tear down each religious movement equally in this class, so if your faith is that weak that you can't handle criticism, there is the door." And unlike most, he wasn't just talking about christans... buddhists, muslims, hindus, shinto - everyone. Most people in that position just put down christans, so it was kind of refreshing that we weren't the red-headed stepchildren for once.

Anyway, that was quite a tangent. I digress...
