Wow, biblical stories have allegorical meanings? This is brand new information to me!
No shit there’s some basic stories about human nature. Yes, christian fundamentalism has been a shaping force of the west. That still doesn’t make the Bible itself worth reading especially when, as previously established, most christians themselves haven’t done so.
It’s like saying someone should read Dianetics to understand why Scientology is fucked up.
This is a ridiculous claim. Reading stories about how god and the devil trick a dude into committing incest or how humans used to be 10 ft tall and live a thousand years before a divine flood wiped out all the non-believers isn’t at all necessary.
It’s entirely possible to have a cogent understanding of western politics without delving into the depths of the mythology. You’d be far better off spending your time reading legitimate political literature or doing irl stuff.
Nah, fewer people should read it

read the name as libs which is just normal wikipedia
“Your honor, when I killed that family and stole the deed to their house I was in fact desperately seeking peace”
Give them a cookie and the wall
I was raised Muslim, I’ve read the Quran twice, no it’s not worth reading.
