But we’re not talking about understanding some religion here (certainly not Judaism). We’re talking about understanding an ancient text.

I guess I have to give up then because I just don’t see how someone can study an ancient religious text without understanding the religion (or an ancient medical text without understanding medicine, or an ancient map without understanding geography, etc.)

That is a separate issue. It will suffice to say that I don’t choose my views cafeteria-style - whatever tastes better ;-)

Diversity is the spice of life. Being dispassionate or very rational all the time would take all the mystery & excitement out of life for me. But, hey, to each his own, right? ;o)
