I broached the same issue regarding Robert Kiyosaki's "Rich Dad, Poor Dad"--even if the messenger is a liar, does it necessarily mean the message is worthless? I see religious text as a catalyst for the inner morality everyone possesses. It is not absolutely necessary to release inner morality and practice kindness, compassion, and goodwill towards fellow human beings. However, whatever releases this inner morality whether aided by religion, philosophy, or self-knowledge is good by me. The different paths differ in terms of the amount of experience, iteration, and other factors. I am not about to judge which path is 'best'--everyone has a path that will work best for him or her. Everyone is different.
