Much of what people supposedly “know” about Christianity is actually rather hard to find in the original Bible, says The Economist. There was no apple in Eden, for example – that confusion appears to have stemmed from a translator’s pun, as the Latin words for “apple” and “evil” are almost identical. And the word “daily” in the Lord’s prayer is “pure bunkum” – there’s definitely a Greek word before “bread”, but no one has a clue what it means.
