(The reason I'm putting this post here is because I tend to subscribe to the idea that religion is the opiate of the masses, and thus making the bible, drug paraphenalia).
Anyways, a little story...
The other day I had to get up at like 5 in the morning to run some errands for my mom. Well, I had been up for a few days prior to that and had finally fallen asleep that night at like 3 am. I was NOT fucking happy to get up, but it's my mom, so I had to. Well, I was already cranky as shit and I didn't want to do any more meth at all, but...I at least needed a joint to make that morning tolerable...
Of course, sure enough, I wake up and just before I am set to leave I go to roll a joint, and I am totally out of papers, not one anywhere in the whole house...
Well, in the past, when the topic has come up, I have been told Bible Paper is actually the best substitute for real papers. Specifically Bible Paper. Well like any decent person I have several Bibles I've stolen from hotels, you know, just to chuck at stuff or quote creepy passages from. So I find one, tear out the fly page (The pages at the beginning and end with NO ink or print on them at all) and start to roll a joint.
(Btw, I used a piece of the Bible paper about the same dimensions as a Djarum Bali Hai paper if anyone uses those, they are very small papers)
Well, the paper actually rolled quite well and since there was no glue, I just used a bit of extra spit and let it sit a little while to dry. It ended up a perfect joint. Well on the road I sparked it up, and believe it or not, I was pleasantly surprised to say the least...
Not only did the whole procedure of rolling a joint run really smoothly, in my opinion was using the Bible paper was actually BETTER than regular rolling papers. (And I have tried pretty much every kind in the world from when I used to work at a head shop).
The paper burned real slow and wasn't harsh at all to smoke. Also, mid way through for the tiniest bit I noticed the paper almost had a hint of pleasant banana flavor. At the very very end of the joint, the paper did finally start to come apart, but I figured enough people exploit Jesus every day, so I didn't need to anymore, and I tossed the roach out the window...
Well I don't know if anyone can answer my question or not, but I was curious if Bible paper is treated in any way with chemicals and in general harmful to smoke?
I know some books are treated with chemicals designed to preserve the paper and increase longevity, but is this a standard practice, and if so, how harmful are those chemicals to smoke?
In the end, I can attest to the fact that if you do, unfortunatley find yourself out of rolling papers, make religion useful for something and rip a page out of the Bible, it really works wonders...
