    If you own a thick printed book, is it OK to tear it in half so the pieces are easier to carry around and read?

        I did this in grad school, except I cut them into several 100 page chunks. Much easier to carry and handle that way.

        It is a very practical thing to do. Unfortunately, you will burn in Hell for doing this to a book. So that’s something to consider.

        I used to do this until one day I went on vacation and accidentally packed the first half of "The Gulag Archipelago" with the second half of "Dune".

        Just tell that book-cutting Blasphemer to start reading e-books and get it over with.

        Allow me to answer you question with a question: Is it "OK" to tear ones children, spouse, lovers in half so as to make them more portable?
