So a simple question: what if our presupposition for understanding the Bible is wrong? What if there is no point to reading it outside of the context it was passed onto us in? What if the Bible's truly valid reading comes only from understanding it as the holy book of the Western faiths? What if the modern deconstruction of the Bible is completely wrong?

What if?

I'll reflect more on this tomorrow, more specifically looking at the issue of what our understandings are.
