That might be a bit too critical. Though I agree with the premise that modern feel good christianity isn't helping progress, it wouldn't take much, now that people are doing independent research, to show them that the bible is and may be the only cumulative document that is in mass print left that helps us answer questions of the past and future. It's not only a book of life guidance, it's a codex of sorts. It may have been altered a bit here and there, but those people too were stupid and scoffed at the texts being literal that they left the real history and warnings in there, we just have to read them in a logical sense rather than a "passage". It's a big discussion and I love entertaining possible theories (including mudfood, giants, eden/Atlantis and Sirius star system heritage) that the bible canonically validates. But I wouldn't doom it, though if I was presented with the same info. several years ago I would probably agree with you. I've learned a lot since then. Christianity in it's modern state needs a heavy wake up call.
