You’re reading that particular book because you happen to be born into a particular culture in a particular moment in time. It’s not a truth of the universe, it’s an accident of your circumstances.
Just like every other sacred text.
- ducaale 6y agoWell, I am glad I was born in those circumstances as a muslim :)
- sjwright 6y agoObviously. That’s how belief works. If you were born at any time in any place, you might well have said the same with respect to any other set of beliefs. You can have your book, just don’t delude yourself into believing it’s special because everyone around you says it is special. And that goes for everyone born everywhere at every time.
