Nutty Bible Quotes is a book with fun illustrations of some rare bible verses.

"I tell everyone the fast track to atheism is to read the bible.  
This book is a faster track . . . and it has pictures."  
- Penn Jillette, Penn & Teller.

The purpose is to amuse, enlighten and get people to think and talk about the actual content in the worlds most influential book - The 'Holy' Bible.

The book will have a softcover with 128 pages containing 50 nutty bible quotes with fun and vivid illustrations divided into 7 chapters (categories). This also includes a gallery describing 6 biblical celebrities and 15 interesting or fun bible facts as an extra bonus.

The book will also be available in Swedish - 'TOKIGA BIBELORD'.

Recommendation by Steve Wells.
Creator and author of The Skeptic's Annotated Bible


To be able to finish the project I need to reach the $9000 goal . 
The fundings will go to let my illustrator complete the work.  It will also enable me to get the book out for publishing at Amazon.com.

The book will be included in most of the perks. At $5 you can get it as an E-book.


I'm a former Christian believer  who was deeply engaged in the church.
Now I am working as a magician / entertainer and are a skeptic.

Doing an inspection of the Bible I got stunned by the dignity of the madness to be found in the holy scripture. I want to share the knowledge in a fun way.

I've found just the right illustrator. He is a professional illustrator with the right approach, understanding and humor. To make an awesome book it's crucial that I can work with this illustrator who understand just my take on this. I need the funds to be able to let him do the whole book with me. 

If the funding will succeed we will be able to self publish the book for distribution over the globe in a couple of months. 




Since many people relate to the Bible, the book is the most influential book in our society. I think it is important that people know what is in it. 

Studies shows that only 10% of Christians have read the Bible. Yet many people take it as a literal truth. Surely it is important that we know what is in it. Please take part with me on this project, to enlighten the world and get some laughs on the way.

If people don't read the Bible they will only hear the cherry picked parts served to them by the churches. Well, here are my cherry picked quotes. All quotes, of course, come with the Bible reference so you and everyone else can read it in its context. 

Bright authors like Sam Harris, Christopher Hitchens, Richard Dawkins, Steve Wells and many more, have written brilliant books that scrutinize the writings in the bible on a deeper level. 
My intention is to make the knowledge easy to digest, and available for everyone. I think humor is a good way. I want it to be fun to read and easy to share.

If we get the book out, it will not just make my dream come true, it will give us a tool too to extend the perspective on the holy scripture and religion.
