Secondly I would ask how it is that Jewish law changed and became "healthier" if the bible is the unchanging and inexorable word of god. If it was simply the work of man then what is it doing in the bible? If man changed the bible how can we ever distinguish between what is gods word and what isn't? If we simply go with what *feels* like gods word and thats different from what other people *feel* is gods word isn't that evidence we are simply cherry-picking from a book using our own morale preference thus making the book irrelevant?
Damn, you're not supposed to ask those difficult questions! People will be giving BS answers for the next 1,000 years.
