> It's amazing how most don't read their "most important book". They just wait for others to tell them the pretty verses they found. It's sort of like modern day social media. People don't actually read the content, they wait for others to comment on the headline only.

This is the case for every major religion out there. I live in the middle east. I've known hundreds of people personally in my life. How many have actually read the Quran cover to cover? Only a few. IMO especially the most religious avoid it at all costs in fear of actually learning some truth that might make them question the book. So APIs and presenting multiple translations is really important. Word by word translation helps a lot. Make it so ubiquitous that people have no chance but to know what is actually written inside instead of acting like they know by reciting a few things they have heard and cherry-picked. I have done my own compilation to help people in the past [1]. Payment is actually optional, free sample already has full content.
