At face value, it certainly has no functional use to camouflage a bible. In the field, even if you did bring your bible with you, it would be in some sort of pack, which hopefully will already be appropriately decorated. It's not as if there are combat priests out in the middle of the bible that must carry their bibles in plain sight.So that leaves the idea that it's decorative, sort of like camouflage pants for kids. This doesn't seem to fit either. Beyond the obvious contradiction inherent in covering your bible with a sign of war, wouldn't it feel weird to use something like this in a religious context? Just like you wouldn't make a Barbey Bible in neon pink with a heart-shaped key-ring put through the spine, it seems like having a GI_Joe bible similarly distracts from the Lord.All I can think of is that it must be for kids. They see it, it's new, they want it for some reason, and their parents are too disengaged to argue. But that still doesn't explain how this made it into actual production.http://www.contemporaryartdaily.com I really can’t understand the logic behind this.
