It's an idea that has merit, but makes religious faith and holy texts irrelevant. Even "getting jesus right" becomes irrelevant...why not "creatively interpret" him - as the author proposes he did with his scriptures? Meh, why do we even need a jesus to creatively interpret? I can weave you a web with little red riding hood (and I can......btw) - and I'll be doing the same damned thing.
The author takes it to the edge of the cliff, tells us that there is merit in jumping.....and then refuses to jump.

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!
