Farkel,
Great piece. I too suffered going thru that Paradise book. Then I carried on the abuse with my own children by faithfully reading the "My Book of Bible Stories" with them daily. I will NEVER forget my 3 year old son getting upset and crying when he saw the story about King Solomon, and in the picture, a soldier is holding up a crying baby by it's leg.....with a sword in his other hand I think! Talk about child abuse...my infant son had enough sense to be upset at the sight of the picture and what it implied, whereas I, with a lifetime of Borg training, lamely attempted to explain it to him!
No more for me, thank you very much!
