Except that it's not a work of history. We've tried to use it as a work of history, and it is miserable. Whether or not the hypothesis was the best they could come up with is irrelevant. The best they could come up with is fantasy. The bible does indeed belong to many other subgroups, nonetheless, it is still fantasy.
I've already made myself quite clear Emanuel, until someone gives me reason to believe that the bible is anything but the authors imaginations, it's going to stay on the fantasy shelf. It's not like I dislike fantasy, or fiction in general. It's sitting there next to some very worthy companions.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
