re. quotes from so-called "sacred text" and other writings

Mark Plus quoted a passage from some bible, but then also quoted from
FM2030's "Up-Wing Priorities".

Having once been a part of an organized religion, I do not care any longer
for what they or their books have to say. Any quotes from any religion's
writings just totally have no interest to me, but FM's writings always are
helpful.

Thank you, Mark.
