It’s hard to read the Torah without understanding that Judaism emerged from a sea of competing religions.

Moses only went up a mountain for five minutes and the Israelites started worshipping a golden calf. And the first three commandments he came down the mountain with are basically a ban on polytheism.

Maybe this dude should rip up the Torah?
