Stealing bibles from the public library!

I was putting a security strip in a bible at work the other day. My co-worker was standing over my cubicle watching me. I looked down and read a passage aloud. My co-worker, a Jehovah's witness, said, "That's from Proverbs." I said, "Yes, you are correct sir, you know your bible." Then he said, "What are you doing? You have to put a security strip in a bible? Who would steal a bible? Imagine trying to explain that. What do you have under your shirt, Sir? A bible!"
