Monotheistic religions continue to be inspire much debate. Most try to understand from the stand point of belief. It is assumed that if a book proclaims often enough that there is a God then that is proof that God exists.
It isn't. There is no proof of God or gods. This needs be understood to understand the stories of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Lot, Jesus, Muhammad and the rest of these grand characters we refer to without much understanding.
Authority must be questioned. Ancient fables that claim affiliation with an all-knowing God that seems to know very little simply is not acceptable for a species with the technology we know have.
Religion must go and pretending it's okay is no longer good enough. Read and know the book you claim to believe.
