Can this quote be logically and factually refuted?
Strange and illogical belief in the literal interpretation of this collection of revised, mistranslated, misinterpreted and misunderstood book that dozens of studies show that Dawkins is right. Thousands of additions and omissions have occurred since it was first put together. What is weird is that people still believe it is literal truth.What can be said in response to the very logical and factual, not to mention academic term "weird", Twila? : )
"...disjointed documents, composed...distorted..."
Perhaps he missed this verse (and many others).
Isa:28:9-10:
Whom shall he teach knowledge?
and whom shall he make to understand doctrine?
them that are weaned from the milk,
and drawn from the breasts.
Isa:28:10:

The OT was not even written until captivity in Babylon. Before that it was just a collection of oral traditions. The NT was not put together until 300+ years after the supposed death of Jesus.

There are literally thousands of different interpretations of the literal meanings of the bible.
