That is not what most Christains have been taught to think, but it is factual. Christianity has always been an evolving story. It was never, even in the New Testament, a finished story." ~ J.S. Spong, “Biblical Literalism: A Gentile Heresy”

How people pick and choose which #Bible verses to take literally, which to enforce as #civillaw, tells us more about the person, than about God's will. The #Torah indeed is religiously amazing - but #fundamentalism combined with unexamined #prejudice (which we all have) prevents us from understanding it.
So on a related note, how do #Jewish people read the Torah?
