	Islamic History in Arabia and Middle East (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)

		The text of the Quran was delivered orally by the Prophet Muhammad to his followers as it was revealed to him.
		Consequently, the Holy Text could only be collected as a single corpus - "between the two covers" - after the death of Muhammad.

	"THE SACRED EVENTS OF HOLY WEEK" - Text Version (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		In the Tuesday of Holy Week we find the actual betrayal going on and, again, we are reminded this struggle between darkness against the light, Judas against the wonder of Christ in our world is replicated in the hearts of each of us, and then Wednesday, the actual betrayal.
		In the Chrism Mass, now in some places the Chrism Mass is celebrated earlier in Holy Week to allow all of the priests to be present, depending on the geography and the conditions of the diocese.
		Now in the presence of your bishops and God’s holy people, are you ready to renew your own dedication to Christ as priests of His New Covenant?" And with that the priests are asked then to renew their priestly promises, the priestly commitment they made at their ordination.

	The Holy Piby and Rastafari: The Life of Bob Marley (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		The true foundation of Rastafari is the Holy Piby, the "Black Man's Bible," compiled by Robert Athlyi Rogers of Anguilla from 1913 to 1917.
		Meeting immediately with much persecution from the Fundamentalist, Revivalist and more conventional Christian church leaders for their adherence to the occult Bible, Goodridge and Garrison fled into the bush country of the parish of St. Thomas, in Eastern Jamaica, and it was there that the seeds of Rastafarianism were implanted.
		Early Rasta leaders like Leonard P. Howell gravitated to the forbidden encampments to read the Holy Piby-purportedly the closest thing to the first Bible, which was said to have been written in Amharic (for centuries the official language of Ethiopia, and allegedly the original language of mankind).

	Focus on the deity or the holy text? - Unexplained Mysteries Discussion Forums
		It is the holy texts that say HOW to worship and HOW to look upon others who worship in a different manner.
		In most cases, the text IS the religion, and is the word of the central deity; in some cases, the sole of account of said deity.
		On one hand you explain away religious texts as attempts to explain things ancients didn't understand; and on the other hand, you are acknowledging that deities exist.

	A List Apart: Articles: Dynamic Text Replacement
		Sticking with the traditional typefaces is smart for body text, but when it comes to our headings — short, attention-grabbing blocks of text — it would be nice to have some choice in the matter.
		Most sites that replace text with images do so using hand-made images, which isn’t so terrible when there are a set number of headings, but it quickly becomes unmanageable on a site that is updated several times per day.
		That’s because the text that we’re using to produce these images will be passed to the script via its URL.

		It is such an extraordinary gift, such a sacred gift, such a holy and wondrous gift from God, that we cannot take it lightly and we need to be able to recognize the obligations we have before receiving it.
		Bishop Bradley: As our Holy Father, Pope John Paul II, a blessed memory, has indicated the Eucharist so beautifully saying, the Eucharist is the source, the summit of the life and mission of the Church.

	Universalist National Memorial Church: Sermon text: "Holy Land"
		I suspect many of you have had an opportunity to share the Passover Seder with Jewish friends and will recall, as I do, the moment when all declare, “Next year in Jerusalem!’’ It is, in one sense, a political statement of a people, in Diaspora, vowing to return to their homeland.
		But, I think you suspect that I am not speaking so literally as to mean that the Holy Land, at least exclusively, is in the Middle East, or Northern Wisconsin, or in the desert of Arizona where the Navajo live, or even Inside the Beltway.
		In short, it is his courageous struggle with himself in the night that permits him to return to the Holy Land and live a life of authenticity and meaning and significance.

	425-612 Holy, Holy, Holy - K. Lee Scott
		Part of Heber's collection of hymns for use with the Anglican Church calendar, "Holy, Holy, Holy" was acclaimed by the British Poet Laureate, Alfred, Lord Tennyson, as "the world's greatest hymn." It is perhaps the best known of more than 50 hymn texts by Heber.
		"Holy, Holy, Holy" was first published in 1826, the year of Heber's premature death, in A Selection of Psalms and Hymns for the Parish Church of Banbury.
		In the vast majority, the text and tune are identical to the definitive rendering in the 1861 English hymnal, Hymns Ancient and Modern.

	sciforums.com - What makes a holy text holy?
		To me, calling any text "holy" is traditionalism taken to the extreme.
		I don't believe that the Quran is holy because it says so or because my parents were born as so called muslims.
		Furthermore, the Holy Book cannot, as can merely human works, be contemplated at a distance; it cannot be discussed and debated in the abstract.
