I was going to ask the local librarian who is also a personal friend, that question on Thursday but she was tired and cranky so I put it off for another time. Will have to remember to ask her on Thursday when my next pile of books and DVD's come in from the main library on the mainland. I'd have thought the Fantasy section would have been best.

Probably neither. Per Library of Congress (LC) system the Bible would be classified in B for Philosophy, Psychology, and Religion.

I use to take all the copies of the Bible in Barnes and Noble to the nonfiction section. That was when I was more militant about being an atheist lol. It makes me cringe now

I'm glad you cringe now. I wouldn't call that nice. did you take the "Book of the Dead " too?

It shows that your heart and mind were in the same direction. It actually sounds rather funny.

Our library seems to have it catalogued under General Works - Non-Fiction
