Bizarrely, Lipton seems to recommend the same approach to the Bible as Dawkins does.
In 'The God Delusion' Dawkins says that he thinks that the Bible (especially the KJV, everyone's favorite) is important to our literature and heritage, comparable to the Iliad. He thinks everyone should read it, but read it like any other work of myth or fiction.
Unless I'm mistaken, that's what Lipton thinks too ;-)
