Tell us about the dinosaurs

[Lethe]

One has to wonder why we see so many Christian theologians trying to intepret a Jewish book (Genesis) without ever calling upon the authors (Jews) to get them to explain it.

"You called YOUR book NEW and said OUR book was OLD! And yet...every Sunday...there's a preacher...interpreting my book..."

Ah, I love Lewis Black. I must say I never understood the Christian mindset on this either. Whenever I had questions about the "Old Testament" (and they were plentiful), my first instinct was to research what Jewish scholars had to say on the subject. The Christians I knew seemed to be more bumbling and confused about the Old Testament than I was.
