Wanted: Electronic/Searchable Holy Books
IainB:
@tinjaw: As a fellow student, I can recommend as the best digital and searchable source that I have come across:
Bahai Research
They have access to just about every religious tome and their various versions, and you can peruse them online or using a downloadable software called "Interfaith Explorer".
Texts are from:
* Authoritative Baha'i
* Baha'i Studies
* Buddhist
* Christian
* Hindu
* Islam
* Judaism
* Sikh
* Tao
* Zoroastrian
The downloadable Interfaith Explorer comes in various versions - for use on Androids, or PCs using Windows, etc.
The Windows one is here: Windows Interfaith Explorer (Download.com)
By the way, the best hardcopy English translation of the Qu'ran/Koran that I have come across is a Penguin (1959) Koran translation by NJ Dawood. It is very well organised and contains a brief historical context. The chapters/verses/subjects are organised- differently to (better than) most other Korans that I have seen.
