In America, you can find a bible in every hotel room, donated by the Gideons.

Does your country have bibles in hotel rooms?
>>
Yuropoors get korans in their hotel rooms.
>>
>>52201816

Pretty sure we also have Gideons bibles in every hotel room too f.a.m
>>
>>52201816
yes, it is Chinese version


can guests take that bible?
>>
>>52202807
they want you to

Ours have been removed.
>>
>>52202907
I meant not giving back
>>
>>52201816
That would be offensive to Muslims.
We even removed all crosses in classrooms out of respect for the Muslim companions.
>>
>>52203022
yes, the can't spread the gospel if no one can take it

if it's gone they will just place a new one

they do give them out
>>
>>52203100
>placing new bible is a cost to hotels

Does it helps the hotels to het more customers?
>>
>>52203428
they don't cost the hotels

gideon gives them out and replaces them

and no, i doubt people go to hotels just so they can take a bible
>>
>>52203032
>>52202914
fucking lol
>>
even had them in the Vegas hotel I stayed at while out there for work

right next to the phone book with full page hooker ads
>>
Too bad they're protestant bibles missing deuterocanonical books.

Yes they do.

>>52203428
No, the hotels don't pay for the bibles. They are donated by the Gideons International. It's a Christian organization that distributes bibles as widely as possible.

Fun Fact: All Marriot Hotel rooms have Book of Mormons.
>>
>>52201816
Yes we have the gideons over here as well.

.....really?
>>
I think they might, but I can't be sure. I haven't stayed in a hotel or motel in at least a good ten years now.
>>
>>52202807
>>52203022
They literally put it there hoping that you take it and keep it. That is why it's there.
>>
>>52202914
>>52203032
>Just cuck my shit up
>>
I bet anything that in 15 years, if /int/ still exists, America will be the only country left with bibles in hotel rooms and threads will be posted daily about it with a golden lel for an OP pic.
>>
>>52201816
We have Gideon bibles but I've also found the book of Mormon and the teachings of Buddha in hotel rooms in Canada.
>>
>>52203819
Yep, even in Canada. Every hotel I've ever been to has them.
>>
>>52204013
>and the teachings of Buddha in hotel rooms in Canada.
Well of course you have..
>>
>>52201816
I hate the way that Americans commercialize any religion and exploit the faith of millions of people just to fill their pockets.

I find it utterly disgusting.
>>
>>52204248
you will find a reason to hate anything

what exploitation?
>>
>>52204248
Those bibles are literally being given away for free.

You're lucky we haven't banned it for blatant communism you stupid nigger.

They are handed out for free you idiot.
>>
>>52202914
>Said country is becoming increasingly multicultural and Bibles 'discriminate'
RIP in pieces England, you will not be missed.
>>
>>52201816
Unfortunately, Gideon International are heretics. There should be copy of the Douey-Reims or other approved English translation of the Bible instead.
>>
>>52204248
>mfw the concept of 'free' is literally lost on non-Americans
>>
No, but we have night stands too
>>
>>52204452
Well, it's only missing a few books of the old testament, what really matters is still there.
>>
>>52204606
>implying it matters

People just use them for emergency rolling papers.
>>
>>52204816
>tfw that's the only reason I have so many bibles in my house
Yup I'm going to hell.
>>
>>52204606
The biggest problem with non-approved translations is that they have no real verification that a group of reputable individuals who are extensively knowledgable on the Bible has actually verified that the translation is accurate. This means that someone could write whatever they wanted and there's no guarantee of quality.
>>
>>52201816
In my experience it's 50/50 whether they have one or not
>>
>>52205933
the other half is quran?
>>
>>52204847
Smoking pages of scripture is good for the soul, if you remember to read them first.

Or at least I think that's what that Rasta in Chicago was trying to tell me, my memory is hazy.
>>
>>52206995
Never ever seen a quran in a hotel. You have 毛主席語錄 in your hotels?
>>
>>52207190
>Taiwan
>毛主席語錄

never, and it is impossible
>>
>>52207261
It's just as preposterous my friend.
>>
>>52207282
>why
>>
>>52207282
your country will be 3rd world in 15 years
>>
>>52207550
We got less mudslimes(3-6% vs 7-8%), niggers and spics than America does. So I don't know what the fuck you are talking about.
