Sorry, but I am forced to conclude that all christians who believe in "literal interpretation" (which are actually the only ones I have problems with) DO in fact believe that Christianity is derived from a book. So for this case, its necessary to understand the book in order to have the common ground to be able to communicate with these people. whatever the goal of that communication might be.

Do I disagree that many things seem to be misconstrued or obviously metaphorical in the text? not at all. In fact, having read the bible, I can say just how absurd some of modern christianity's views are. Not that you'd know apparently. Maybe you think reading is beneath you.

Call me whatever you like But maybe if you didn't base all your opinions on hearsay and instead, oh I don't know, read a book (?), you might be able to intelligently discuss these matters.
