Would you read this blog?

I had an idea tonight for a new blog. It would be called (tentatively) "The Bible for the Rest of Us." The idea would be a discussion of the Bible and its influence, aimed primarily at secularists, humanists, atheists, and "average Joes." It would look at the Bible from a non-religious, non-faith-based standpoint, and include the following general topics:

- history of the Bible (sects, heresies, conflicts, and important figures influenced by the Bible)
- the Bible's influence today (how the Bible influences modern art, literature, language, holidays, social institutions, and current events)
- little-known stories from the Bible (the bad (incest, rape, and murder) as well as the good (wisdom, love, and peace))
- life lessons from the Bible (both those intended by the text and those we can learn from contrasts with today)
- scholarship about the Bible (its authorship, context, and exegesis)
- excerpts of some particularly beautiful or relevant passages

In short, a Bible blog that deals with everything other than, "why we should believe in the Bible."

So, three questions for you, my faithful lj readers:
1. Would you read this blog?
2. Do you think other people would read this blog?
3. If you answered "no" to either of the two previous questions, is there anything I could do to change that answer to "yes"?
