Again, no apparent source for your complaint that ...
"It's far more interesting and worthwhile to interpret
and evaluate what's in the books, rather than forever
trawling elsewhere and trying to force things into
them which aren't there at all. This is particularly
so when the trawling is done in the interests of
producing a biased reading, or rewriting, of the text.
Of course, any reading is intrinsically biased, or
subjectivised, but there's a difference between using
the texts to champion some doctrinaire political or
religious viewpoint, meanwhile turning the texts into
little more than polemics, and acknowledging and
valuing them for the complex and multifarious works of
art which they are."
And there are very few who are NOT complaining about
something or another here these days ...
