Now that the eye burn-in from weekend fireworks has faded, it's time to see what people have been reading over the past few days:

• Meet Bibliotheca, the 4-volume esoteric Bible edition that's taking Kickstarter by storm. You have 18 days to order for Christmas.
• "She was forced into prostitution and suffered unimaginable abuses for twenty years. Miraculously, she survived" Lynne Hybels on Lisa's Story, and how blog readers made a difference.
• Imagine this: You're a nurse applying for a job and you get this response, "Due to the fact that … you are a member of AAPLOG [American Association of Pro-Life Obstetricians and Gynecologists], we would be unable to move forward in the interviewing process." A lawsuit is in the works.
• ... In other legal news, WWJD is now a registered trademark.
• Under changes made last week, Anglican priests in Australia who listen to parishioners confessing to serious crimes are no longer under obligation to keep the confessional confidential.
