we have a nation of people who claim to have had direct dealings with God.
We have several hundred nations who claim that sort of thing, but all with different gods, Peg. Coyote really did play tricks on the ancestors of the Cheyenne, y'know. Zeus really did kidnap maidens all over Hellas. That the Hebrews were a bit obsessive/compulsive about copying their scrolls doesn't add any weight to the accuracy of the original stories.

"The wretched world lies now under the tyranny of foolishness; things are believed by Christians of such absurdity as no one ever could aforetime induce the heathen to believe." - Agobard of Lyons, ca. 830 AD
