Balance,

> With all that in mind, I found it a touch exhasperating for Matt to make the 'Jews did it first and Christians did it later..' bit. Which is why I responded the way I did. The truth is, some else did it first, the Jews rewrote it and added their own until it was to their liking, and the Christians read into that and added their own to it until it was to their liking.-All Priests edit. -My only complaint was that you said there was an overarching theme to the Bible. If you meant that as, there is a generally repeated pattern of Gods and prophets, I agree. If however you meant, there is a centralized narrative that ties everything together, then we are diametrically opposed.
