the author is a biblical scholar who has written extensivly on the old and new testament.

what part of it did you find anti-religious?

Firstly, Kirsch doesn't call himself a biblical scholar, merely a journalist! He has written several books on the O.T. and suggests that he is giving substance to biblical stories heretofore unexplained or dramatized. Publisher Weekly said his books wouldn't sit well with fundamentalists, and chides Kirsch for not letting the reader know where he is coming from and what his sources might be. Someone looking for solid answers would not be served by reading this book,imo!
