(Alex's comment: Although this article is from infidels.org, the authoritative textbook it summarizes is not "anti-Christian" at all. In fact, the book has been criticized (unfairly) as doing "believers' scholarship," not critical scholarship! 雖然文章來自「不信者」網站，它摘要的權威教科書絕不是反基督教的。事實上，該書被（不公允地）批評在做「信徒學術」而非「批判學術」！)
