U.S. — Christian influencer Richard Kickrider published a video on YouTube highlighting what he calls "a radical new life hack" where you can shave 7 books off your Bible-in-a-year plan by simply converting from Catholic to Protestant.
"Hey, brothers! Check out this sweet life hack! I just cut 7 books out of my Bible with this one simple trick!" Kickrider said in his 20-minute video. "I left the Catholic Church and — instant rapture — shorter Bible. Reading the Bible in a year has never been easier!"
The reason for varying Bible lengths has been a subject of great debate in Christendom for centuries. However, the relative ease of finishing the Protestant Bible in a year was simply undeniable.
"I've never been able to read the Bible in a year," said YouTube commenter "PapistMcGee". "But now it might just be possible!"
The video currently has 144,000 views and counting. Though the video has garnered over 10,000 likes, the comments section is filled with several posts calling for the excommunication of Richard Kickrider.
At publishing time, Richard Kickrider had published a new video warning fans against joining the Ethiopian Orthodox Church because their Bible is even longer, clocking in at a whopping 81 books.
Citing concerns about stiff competition from Amazon and an impossible-to-please Gen Z, Santa has announced he's hanging up the hat for good.
