I agree that proposing to rewrite the holy books is not sensible.
I certainly would have plenty to say about the approval of violence and slave taking in the Bible before I was in the position to comment on other people's religions.
But within the church itself, certainly churches can be held to account for their violent intrepretation or preaching of religions that in essence peaceful.
