Well, let's get this started right. Who's with me? I bet they sell a few more copies of The Beatles stuff than bibles. Really, I have more fondness for the Beatles than any organized religion.
Discuss!

It is estimated that 44 million Bibles are sold every year.

In November of 1999, the RIAA announced that the Beatles had sold a total of 106 milliam albums. This disregarded single sales, however.

As brilliant as the Beatles were, I don't think their record sales will be approaching 44 million units a year any time soon.

Ya well, how many people really read those things? I am sure they highlight certain passages and read parts of it in church, but I doubt they read it cover to cover. I listen to The Beatles almost everyday! Everyone believes in Beatles, except John. Not everyone believes in god, or at least in the Christian god. Just think, without religion, the world would be a much better place. :)

To be fair, just think of how many people bought "1", only to have it sit in their collections gathering dust. Or to listen once in a great while.

And in my case, they're both red and gold. Oooooh, spooky...

I don't believe in Bibles.

I just believe in Yoko and me. And that's reality.
