But when you read it backward you get a lot of people bringing dead people back to life and suddenly it is a very moral book.
Already addressed on my blog: https://keplersdream.wordpress.com/2013/...-its-epic/
So this is where N-S got his new "scholastic" approach to the Bible, by something you started as a joke. No doubt the whole Bible started when two Bedouins were sitting in the desert few thousand years ago telling jokes
Bedouin 1: Hey listen I just thought up a great joke, what do you say whole world was created by a human with supernatural, all-powerful powers in 6 days and then... get this, a mere human eats a fig from a wrong tree so the wizard punishes not only every human that ever lived but plants, animals, and the earth itself pay the price!
Bedouin 2: Ha! Ha! Ha! Stop it, you'll make me vomit all the camel milk. Hi! Hi! I mean imagine an all-powerful being not being able to come up with the same results without the evils he couldn't figure out a better plan!
I mean to act so stupid, like a parent that would beat a child nearly to death at her first mistake, then leaving all subsequent errors and crimes undisciplined!
Bedouin 1: Yeah I know, I better write it down, this will make a kill in Canaan.
