It is not that "it saves". it's just the best we got for now. I mean think of the opposing thought. "don't use knowledge to make a choice." At some point we have to use some reason. And Jesus used what he knew of the world around him to make some basic choices. He stood ageist a literal religion because it goes against using knowledge. He showed us how to reject the apple.
