Why was it called The Holy Bible?
Any ideas?

I think Richey once said that in any given religion, the Bible or book of choice is considered the book of gospel truth, and this was theirs.

That's weird considering the title 'This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours'...I suppose two versions of truth?

Two interpretations or ways of conveying the same truth maybe?

I remember them saying something that The Holy Bible is in every hotel room and they travel a lot

The album was called the holy bible because the manics critics all moral issues like the good or evil, people hipocresy, religion... Is all the richie james thoughts. He attacks the injusticies of the world.

Obviously because Richey started a cult, and that is their 'Holy Bible'. /laughing at a cliché

Just adds more fuel to my belief that THB and TIMTTMY are sister albums.

From the NME piece on The Holy Bible, Richey had said: "In every hotel in the world, the only constant is the Holy Bible." I thought there was an elaboration on this in one of the Manics books though, I can't seem to find the passage alas.
EDIT: Ah wait, maybe he says that in that Youtube video linked above, his comments are transcribed in Nailed to History too: Quote:
