IPv6 Bible
The IPv6 Bible is a means of encouraging IPv6 deployment. It is a series of 31,000 IPv6-only websites, each containing one King James Bible verse with its own IP address, thus giving off the illusion that there are 31,000 servers/hosts (even though they are all handled by one server). Using the Nginx $server_addr trick, we basically route an entire /64 to one of my servers (actually an LXC-like container), then compare the server IP address used by the client to deliver the correct Bible verse. This means that any DNS record pointing to its IPv6 addresses will cause the same Bible verse to appear, consistent with the expectation that pointing an arbitrary DNS record to an IP address, whereby the host with that IP address does not know about the domain name, will bring up the default site. That is to say, this server does not rely on name-based virtual hosting, even with its IP addresses.

The services described here are IPv6-only, without any IPv4 addressing. If you have trouble viewing these pages, then you do not have IPv6 connectivity. This is usually not due to an issue with the firewall or web filter (if present in your network). If you have a cell phone, you may need to turn off your Wi-Fi or VPN and use cellular data instead.

Let the word of God reach the whole Internet, not just the old Internet.
