Well, it's theme sure won't hold water.
"Holy" is just a deceptive word used to sell it to pretenders.
None of them can even define 'god', every one of them has invented their own, not a match for the one the next guy has...
Because some people are so gullable. They think some god made a book and it's still here today? Like come on, people add sh*t to it -- it's been proven by a university student too.
But the Holy part, well why not praise a stupid book? I actually don't know but I'll probably get a lot of hate for this comment. Couldn't care less.

The term 'bible' simply means collection of written works/stories, and that's what the bible is. To differentiate it between other "instructional" books that are collections of stories -- like the fisherman's bible, the gun owners' bible, etc. However to differentiate it and to give it a little more credence, "holy" is tacked onto it because allegedly all those stories in the bible are "holy." More like holey.
Because they consider it holy. As long as they accept that not everyone shares that opinion I'm ok with them calling it anything they want.
You presently live in a culture that is based on European society in which the majority of citizens self identify with Christianity in one form or another.....
If you lived in the middle East or a predominately Muslim nation / culture, you would refer to the Qur'an as "holy" or "noble".....
It really isn't that difficult to understand unless one is showing his or her immaturity and looking to pick a fight, which would accomplish nothing.
Because God Jehovah is holy, so his Word the Bible is also holy.

How ironic that you should call it that, when you insist it has nothing to do with God!
It is not just a book; happens to be 66 separate scrolls that make up the bible and when one reads the entire bible, it brings it into complete perspective, for it is all in harmony, despite the different time spans!
Here is a link that will show you why it is called: holy book. wwwjw.org
The fact of the matter, because every word was written by the mouth of God, not by some disciple or some scribe no it was written by the mouth of God, that is why it is called the Holy Bible, because God is Holy, that is why it is called the Holy Bible, and only when God opens you spiritual eyes, and makes you blind eyes see that he is the one and only true God then and only then will you truly understand that God is the true God, God Jesus Christ.

Calling the Bible "Holy" is like calling Hitler's book Mein Khamp "Holy". They both advocate evil and call it good...
Because Holy men of God wrote the Holy words of God, and because Bible means Book. it is a Holy Book
