Often maligned as an outmoded and even dangerous text by authors like Richard Dawkins, Karen Armstrong, and Derrick Jensen, the Old Testament is often found to be problematic for modern sensibilities. In Seriously Dangerous Religion, Iain Provan opposes modern misconceptions of the Old Testament by addressing ten fundamental questions that the biblical text should—and according to Provan does—answer: questions such as 'Who is God?' and 'Why do evil and suffering mark the world?' By focusing on Genesis and drawing on other Old Testament and extra-biblical sources, Seriously Dangerous Religion constructs a more plausible reading. As it turns out, Provan argues, the Old Testament is far more dangerous than modern critics even suppose. Its dangers are the bold claims it makes upon its readers.
