What doesn't make sense to me is: Why is faith a requirement?
Why the need for a book?... specially a book that comes after other similar books already exist...
Alas... the requirement of faith is what takes all credibility away from any mythology.
It makes it sound like the book was written by men, for men, to help control men's behaviors. Sure it does provide some helpful guidelines, but then... way too much crap is made up to uphold the illusion of the exterior uber-master of the world... the god.
And, nowadays, there's no real need for such illusory baggage. People, at least in the developed world, can behave themselves without the belief in a cosmic big-brother/judge. Secular law works well enough.... and, dare I say it... better than theocracy-law.
