The conclusions in this book, I think, is key to understanding, and answering, the many accusations non-Christians throw at believers. Correcting our understanding of Scripture also goes a long way to remedy all the questions about "contradictions," and "historical inaccuracies," both in Christianity and Jewish tradition. What if you could believe, that for multiple centuries, mankind was like the children in the book, 'Lord of the Flies.' The world and the Hebrews were like tribes of children marooned on the island of earth, attempting to please an invisible and unknowable God. When God tried to reach our ant-like brains, we amalgamated what He said into our vulgar, coarse, and idolatrous thinking. Alas, God had to do something drastic; He manifested Himself into a man; that Man was the divine expression, the Logos, the true reliable picture of God, our mediator, the only Begotten Son of God.
