That's a bit thin. What about the scriptures of those religions that don't posit any sort of God, loving or otherwise? And if brain and reason are the only faculties/tools we've got then everything begins to look like sudoku.
Well you have to make an initial leap of faith of course. But, having decided to believe in God (or in any ideology), surely there is then space for the application of (God-given presumably) human reasoning to interpret these written revelations? Otherwise there wouldn't be the Talmud or countless other works that explain scripture. If it was all so obvious, noone would ever write about or discuss any religious based moral teaching.
