Apparently their objection is not so much to the idea of God revealing Himself to humanity as to the idea of this revelation being written down and embodied in a book. Yet no amateur who wants to construct, say, a television set objects to obtaining a book of instructions telling how this is to be done, still less does he blame the writer of such a book for his temerity in writing it and its readers for their "fundamentalism" in following it. Why should it be right to receive a revelation from God but wrong to write it down?
