We a have so many other books now that contain all those good messages, even a lot more with more relevance to modern life, without all the terrible stuff and non-sense.
It just makes no sense to keep a 2000 old book around for a couple of good messages that are already thaught in many other, more modern stories and context.
I interpreted it as “do they have any good morals”
That seems like quite a low bar. Basically the broken clock being right twice a day.
No relgious person goes around and says “never mind that jesus and god stuff, I’m just in it because of the “you shalt not kill””. It’s always about bundling in all the irrelevant crap. Those couple good stories about helping neighbours doesn’t offset that.

No, that was not the point. They point was “do Relgions have good morals” and the answere is clearly no.
