“What are the principled grounds for saying what is true and what is metaphor in the texts and traditions? The texts on which Christianity rests were until quite recently regarded as literal historical truth in their entirety. Fundamentalists still believe this. And almost all Muslims believe that the Qur’an is literal historical truth. But increasingly, in a more educated and scientific age, the frequent implausibilities and absurdities of these texts have forced theologians into explaining-away and cherry-picking.” — A.C. Grayling
