[Sir Francis Dashwood]

In historical reality, monogamy was an essential element of Western culture long before that culture became a Christian culture...

Moses is the first philosopher who said our rights do not come from an earthly monarch.

King Solomon had how many wives

King Solomon, who was neither a Westerner nor a Christian, had many wives. And, as the Bible relates, his many wives were the cause of him abandoning the worship of God and sacrificing to idols.

Moses is the first philosopher who said our rights do not come from an earthly monarch.

Moses was not a philosopher and he never mentioned "rights" because he had no notion of such a concept.

Moses was the foundation of Western Civilization.

One would have to radically alter the historical notion of "Western Civilization" to arrive at that conclusion.

Everything is in Genesis, it encompasses all things.

It does not encompass Moses, who is unmentioned in it.
