Reddit reviews The Brick Bible: The Complete Set (Brick Bible Presents)

Nice try, OP. This isn't lego anything, its the Brick Bible.

>I could not believe how much this mocks the bible and makes fun of it... Ordered it for my son's birthday guessing it would be a fun way to go through the bible. Nope. This is full of lego "gore" pictures and lots of mean faces. So sad...

Read the hysterical 1-star parent reviews of "The Brick Bible" on Amazon. If you're not familiar with the book, it illustrates (with Lego), major moments in the bible in full gory detail. Parents are aghast that anyone would let kids be exposed to this filth.

The Brick Bible is great. It tells the complete story of the Bible, instead of just the "nice" stories. But it uses legos, so it isn't so horrifying.

Also, search on Amazon for World Religions. Teach them all about the different world religions and how someone's religion depends on their parents, and not truth.

This is the book I used. More education is better, especially if you live in the Bible belt.

This is why I love the Brick Bible. For some reason, having Lego people act out Bible stories really highlights how crazy they are. Bonus: read the 1-star reviews to see religious people agreeing, haha.

I want one!

Edit: here is the set on amazon. Ordered :)

Edit 2: looks like there are a ton in a childrens series, Bible stories in lego for kids.

Edit 3: fairy tales too!

I'm inclined to agree despite that all I initially said was "you have no leg to stand on" but on the other hand, there's an equal amount of upvoting for the comment I replied to, which is inaccurate. It being reddit, I think people are just likely to upvote religious "neutrality" (and anti-theism) and downvote what they perceive as "pro-religion."

In the end, Lego is a company looking for consumers. There are more than enough examples of how Lego has no problem taking Christian money, and if other religions were as easy to market to I'm sure you'd find that throughout, also.

I'm actually surprised that there hasn't been a legitimate Lego nativity, at least that my super abbreviated Google search has pulled up. The Fisher Price Little People Nativity is a huge product every holiday season, and it would seem that with the different stages of Lego product they could probably hit the same families two or three times if they played their cards right (a Duplo set, a Juniors set, a Creator set, and maybe even a Collector's Series or whatever that super detailed, mega-sized edition is). Not all at once, of course, but over time.

Santa is a symbol of the Christmas spirit or Christmas marketing or whatever you want to call it, but is indelibly tied to the holiday itself with its religious roots. The Advent Calendars aren't called even something benign like "Christmas Countdowns" or "Winter Calendars" like the "Winter Village" and that says that the marketing people were in no way scared off by the religious connotation of the word "Advent."

Lastly, for all of those who want to pretend that Lego is this great Switzerland of religious neutrality, I put out there the Brick Bible which is explicitly "not endorsed or created by LEGO" but in this day and age I'd be shocked if a company couldn't put the kibosh on such a thing if they wanted to. But, why? It's marketing. It creates purchases, and enthusiasts, and it doesn't incite anyone to violence like other world religions might if their holy book was recreated in the same fun-loving spirit.

an alternative

I prefer the Brick Bible, myself.

Pretty much a Comic Book Bible

Edit: There's a Greek mythology one now, nice.

I have this. Got both the Old and New Testaments at Amazon for $16.44. Also includes a double-sided poster.
