If an English lit teacher was passing out assignments assignments for
students to give a book report. Various books are chosen, some long ,
some short.

OK, the list has several *options* None are specifically required.
Here's a sample list:

"To Kill a Mockingbird"
"All Quiet one the Western Front"
"Gulliver's Travels"
"Moby Dick"
"The book of Matthew"
"Oliver Twist"
"The Trial"

As long as the teacher understands the report might not be positive
and that the reporter may point out incongruities in the story line
and historic inaccuracies, where is the problem?


The problem is that I am sure that "the teacher" wouldn't allow such
criticism of the other works... But I know, it's Christianity so it's ok
to just trash it and forget the content.... pffffttt...



The *other* books on the list are works of fiction, and in works of
fiction, historical inaccuracies might not be such a big deal. The books
in the so-called New Testament are supposed to be factual, so
inaccuracies matter.

Thus, Scott Ingersoll once again proves he is dumber than a rotting wood
post.
