From that regular source of curious tales, Swedish English language daily The Local:
Way back lost in the mists of time a particularly lame master at my old school attempted to impress school assembly by telling us there was a motorcycle in the bible - after David slew Goliath, ''all you could hear was the roar of David's Triumph". Cue much groaning and embarassment by proxy.
"A big part of Metal Sanctuary’s mission is to spread the Metal bible to secular metal heads, something which they did at the recent Sweden Rock Festival in Sölvesborg in southern Sweden, and plan to repeat at other similar festivals and metal shows. The Metal Bible is a special edition of the Bible for metal fans which contains the New Testament and testimonials from metal heads in which they discuss the importance of God and the Bible in their lives. According to the Metal Bible’s website...which has sold around 40,000 copies in Swedish. An English version of the Metal Bible has been completed and is due to be released in the autumn of 2009".
