“Another dogma I’ve only mentioned in passing relates to the authority of the Bible. This is the notion that what the Bible says goes—the Bible dictates our morality to us.

“Contrary to popular belief, the 1611 King James Version included the entire Apocrypha, although more compact editions of the KJV were frequently published without it.
