biblical stories of Jesus and Moses and the Genesis account of creation to their pagan beginnings, demonstrating them to be efforts by a pre-scientific people to explain the mysteries and origin of the world around them -- explanations that have long since been superseded by the discoveries of science. Similarly, the moral injunctions of the Bible, as codifications of ancient traditions, are incompatible with an enlightened modern perspective, since they condone slavery, the subjugation of women, and even genocide.
