Bible by Ana Marie Alcantara in Housekeeping/Cleaning/Laundry about 1 year agoHow important is a bible inside the guest room? These days, theres lots of different religions. If I put a bible, I dont think it is fair for other religions. If I put a bible, I should consider putting reading materials for other religion but I think when you are on vacation, one does not have the time to read a bible. Can I get your opinion on this matter? Thanks!
