This article is one of the thinnest pieces of historical and cultural criticism I have ever read. It is filled with half-examined ideas, distortions, and historical inaccuracies. For example, in reference to Jesus the author says:
"...spoke, read and wrote no language except Hebrew."
Jesus' native tongue was Aramaic, not Hebrew.

Oh well, sloppiness is a way of life for some people, and it's reflected in their writing.

True...Jesus spoke Aramaic, but it might be possible that he read and wrote only Hebrew (?). Not sure....
