The Bible is the best selling (holy) ghost-written novel of all time, that is, if we define the novel very loosely as a very long story that has certain features in common with the real world as we know it.

It has probably sold so well chiefly because it is full of mindless and gratuitous violence, conflict, betrayal, incredible suffering, slaughter, mayhem, intrigue, sex, and in part II, has a strong, charismatic and engaging central male character who, through a series of sometimes massively attended public talks on spirituality as well as good works, dedication and self-sacrifice, educates large sectors of the people and gains widespread popularity as a public speaker and general benefactor.

However, he eventually succumbs to a largely Jewish conspiracy through which, by an ironic reversal, he manages to save the whole of humanity. He even makes a dramatic come back as a dead-alive being who remains on earth for a short while to brief and empower his agents, only to disappear again, like Fox Mulder in the X-Files.

We have been waiting 2000 years for a sequel but none seems forthcoming or even in the pipe-line. Indeed, it was a masterpiece that has often been imitated both in novel form and on the silver screen but never emulated.
