Partially fixed;

• The Life and Morals of Jesus of Nazareth
  
  It is the New Testament edited by Thomas Jefferson, and has the nickname of The Jefferson Bible. Most of the superstitious nonsense has been thrown away, leaving under 50 pages of mostly aphorisms and maxims or just thoughts.
  
  Or, in secular circles this one looks interesting;
  
  
• The Good Book - A.C. Grayling

  Description of the book from the Amazon UK link;
  
  > Drawing on the wisdom of 2,500 years of contemplative non-religious writing on all that it means to be human - from the origins of the universe to small matters of courtesy and kindness in everyday life - A.C. Grayling, Britain's most popular and widely read philosopher, has created a secular bible. Designed to be read as narrative and also to be dipped into for inspiration, encouragement and consolation, "The Good Book" offers a thoughtful, non-religious alternative to the many people who do not follow one of the world's great religions. Instead, going back to traditions older than Christianity, and far richer and more various, including the non-theistic philosophical and literary schools of the great civilisations of both West and East, from the Greek philosophy of classical antiquity and its contemporaneous Confucian, Mencian and Mohist schools in China, down through classical Rome, the flourishing of Indian and Arab worlds, the European Renaissance and Enlightenment, the worldwide scientific discoveries of the 19th and 20th centuries to the present, Grayling collects, edits, rearranges and organises the collective secular wisdom of the world in one highly readable volume. Contents of this title include: "Genesis"; "Proverbs"; "Histories"; "Songs"; "Wisdom Acts"; "The Lawgiver Lamentations"; "Concord Consolations"; "Sages"; and, "The Good Parables".

My bible would be The Secular Bible

Havn't read it so i'm going on one hell of a gamble here; but surely it couldn't be any worse than the Holy Bible?

If you think thats bad.

The man is a hubristic twazock. Nor dose he have any particularly interesting work that offsets this.

Alain de Botton wrote about "a Religion For Atheists" and AC Grayling put together "The Good Book".

I can't honestly say I'd recommend either.

Sold out in the UK http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/0747599602/ but available on Kindle.

In the US it's only available from Sellers http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/0747599602/

> "Bible" was a really misleading word to use in the title of this article, because this book certainly isn't trying to be one.

I think A.C. Grayling would disagree...
