Dude, did you not read the comment I was responding to?

You yourself just refuted WoGW wrote.

If you are going to just jump in to someone elses discussion at least be courteous enough to consider what we both are saying.

Oh I read it. Unless I was mistaken, he was wondering why anyone would still believe those ethnocentric Jewish fairy tales, and you responded with how widespread Christianity is. I was explaining why that is. They were ethnocentric Jewish fairly tales that Christianity decided to redefine and, like I said, I don't think the writers of the OT would have wanted people all around the world relating to these stories. They were tailored for the Middle Eastern Jewish culture.
