This is a post from Professor Richard Wiseman's Blog. I Found this idea very interesting and feel like reposing it here.
"I have been traveling lots recently, and keep coming across Bibles in my hotel room. I assume that they are there to help some people in times of need. The idea of offering help is obviously sound, but I do worry that perhaps there is a more effective and inclusive way of doing it…..so, what book would you like to see in every hotel room in the world? How do you react to the Bible in hotel rooms? Would you keep the Bible or replace it with something else?"
Personally I feel that its time we changed things up a bit. Take them out of the hotel bed stand and put them behind the room service desk, if people want them they can still get them but instead of putting them in every room let guests ask for them if they want one. By placing them in the rooms it is in a way imposing a religion many don't agree with on the patrons paying for a room for the night. I say take the black book out, but leave the yellow pages in, now that is something people could have a real use for.
