It's hardly a shock to find that in the largely Christian west, with its Christian history, festivals, culture, language, etc. that many people consider the Bible to be the most important book ever written.
If this survey was carried out in Tehran, the Koran would have unequivocally topped the list. If it was carried out in India, the Tipitaka would win. Jerusalem, the Torah. Any survey of this kind is inherently biased in favour of the predominant religion of the region.
I find it depressing and frightening in equal measure that so many people consider books that preach violence and intolerance to be culturally and spiritually rewarding.
