So you're putting the blame on some other asshole that wrote it few hundred years ago.
Just like you're quoting the Bible saying that Allah is energy because of Moses and burning bush. First of all that never happened in the real world since Moses didn't exist and also fire is state of matter called plasma, so you can flip it any way you want and you do.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
