Um. No. I actually try to avoid reading the Bible as much as I can (and I said so, on the very last question).

This is a generational thing, I think-- an example of cultural literacy, and being able to make educated guesses on the rest (such as knowing that the Isrealites did not get into Egypt on bicycles).

Okay, yes, though. I did attend Mount Saint Mary College, as an undergrad, where we were required to take three religion courses and a philosophy course to graduate*. So I guess, technically, I am a Biblical scholar. But I haven't cracked open a Bible in nearly twenty years.

*the three courses I chose were: "Roots of Judaism and Christianity" (taught by an iconoclast nun, who insisted on changing God's pronoun from "He" to "She" in all the hymns), "The Bible as Literature," and "World Religions" (Where I wrote my credo as a Neo-Pagan, and officially came out of the broom closet).
