I have pondered why some wish the
Camino be divorced from it's spiritual and/or religious roots. Perhaps from
a sense of misguided self-righteousness, who can say? There seems to be a
smug and indulgent intolerance nonetheless.

Why must you persist in jamming your religious zeal and fervor down our
throats? Can't you understand that there may be a Camino experience based on
historical and cultural considerations? You are guilty of the intolerance that
you decry.
Here are a few PDFs for Pilgrim consumption …

And some really great Bible software with all the major EU languages
supported.
There are 10 English translations, and one each of French, German, Italian,
Portuguese, Spanish, Dutch, the Latin Vulgate, plus Greek New and Hebrew Old
Testaments.

This is the last place I would expect religious proselytizing. I think most
of us can get our hands on the Bible or Bible software without your telling
us how. After all it is the most popular book in history.
Even if one were totally ignorant of where to find the Bible, you could
still find a copy in most hotel rooms right next to your bed. Don't you Bible
wavers and thumpers have anything better to do? Give me a break!
