This follows what I know, the name of God can be heard but not spoken. In similar fashion the word is mistaken for the Bible.

I'm not a Christian or follower of any religion but sometimes some come to a conclusion that I somewhat agree with. I found this page by googling, "the word" is mistaken for the Bible.

I like this part.
