Is there a Bible-to-SMS gateway?

Jun 12, 2006 09:50

I'm serious. I would like to be able to text one of the following messages and get the bible verse as a return message:

  • mic 6 8
  • kjv mic 6 8
  • niv mic 6 8
  • Micah 6:8
  • etc.

For those who don't recognize it (I didn't) --

He has showed you, O man, what is good.
And what does the LORD require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy
and to walk humbly with your God.

I'm pretty sure I could write a Perl script (perhaps using Religion::Bible::Reference) that would take this sort of input and translate it into a query against gospelcom.net, and perhaps parse the results to get the verse in question. But I don't know how to set things up so that someone could send text messages to my script and get a response by text message.

bible, sms, religion, cell phones
