Like the stories in the religious texts all make the underlying assumption that mankind is WAY to stupid to have EVER come up with the subtle stories, allegories, advice and such that occurs in religions texts around the planet.
I say mankind is WAY intelligent enough, the best of us anyway, to come up with every word of every religious document on the whole planet for the last 10,000 years.
Claiming all that stuff comes from God, a god, the god, whatever, denigrates the creativity of mankind.
Just look at the non religious books extant, philosophy, the arts, music, dance, technology, math, physics, chemistry, logic and so forth.
Does this sound like a bunch of humans so stupid as to never be able to come up with the pithy sayings and such in religious texts?
