Description:Chapters: The Brick Testament, Ship of Fools, Betty Bowers, Landover Baptist Church, Net Authority, Lark News, the Holy Observer. Source: Wikipedia. Pages: 24. Not illustrated.

The project began as a website in October 2001 that featured six stories from the book of Genesis. There is also a Brick Testament book series. The retelling of the action is essentially straight, although Smith takes care to bring out any elements of sex and violence or destruction in the story. The illustrations often make a sharply ironic commentary on the text, particularly on instructional passages. For example, the images used to illustrate the Ten Commandments unusually choose to foreground the original capital nature of the offences; the injunction to suffer no false prophets is juxtaposed with scenes of the Jews applying the verse to Jesus; and modern-day extremes are presented to test the limits of the command to "love one's enemy." Throughout stories are retold using passages from the Bible, with chapter and verse cited, the wording being a free adaptation that Smith says is based on a number of public domain Bible translations.

Such text is displayed in gray instead of the usual black. The website and book series have been released for use, and apparently have been used, by anti-religious groups. The website claims to have given permission to a number of churches and religious groups to use Brick Testament illustrations.
