TO Dayton, Ohio, where bus driver Ricky Wagoner, 49, has been shot once in the leg and twice in the Bible he keeps in his breast pocket.

Saved by the Good Book. Wagoner went for his three assailants, stabbing one with his pen. When one dropped the weapon, Waggoner picked it up and fired at the trio.

(The pen is indeed mightier than the gun.)

We’re told that the book was The Message: The Bible in Contemporary Language, which runs to 1,728 pages.

Would other holy books have saved the day?

The Koran: 456 pages.

The Talmud: 896 pages.

Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health: 678 pages.

All far thicker than a Kindle. Think on…
