They're always be an England but I'm not sure I'm happy about that!
Goliath was a celebrity binge drinker, and Adam was obsessed with Eve's naked body - according to a retelling of traditional Bible stories by an Anglican vicar.
The Must Know Stories, written by the Rev Robert Harrison, feature a reworking of the top ten Bible stories, which were chosen in a poll by the Christian charity Scripture Union.
In the book, the tale of David and Goliath is retold from the perspective of the giant, portrayed as a "depressed alcoholic" who is hung over on the day of his fateful encounter with David.
The story of the Garden of Eden is retold from the point of view of Adam, who revels in Eve's "beautiful body" and in the nativity tale, Jesus is born in an overcrowded house instead of a stable, amid family conflict as Joseph's aunt deals with the fact that he and Mary are not married.
If you must know, read about it here in The Telegraph.

I'm really overjoyed to be a Catholic!
(just seems like an appropriate response here! :-))
Yrrrr darn tootin', Cathy! It's great that we don't have to keep relearning our bible history and theology every few years. For some of us, the Baltimore Catechism said it all and got it right!
88. Is Saint Joseph the father of Jesus Christ?
Jesus Christ had no human father, but Saint Joseph was the spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary and the guardian, or foster father, of Christ.
These guys seem to have a need to reinvent their beliefs every few years or so. Must be exhausting!
