"and probably most people would agree with me about one of them—in each case"... So in what sense are these books overrated?https://twitter.com/prospect_uk/status/892419656455081984 …

Are you trying to prove that philosophers also don't read very well? Because that's clearly not what Dennett implied.

He implied that followers of each religion would glorify one book and dismiss the other - thus "agreeing" with him on one.

It's broader. He means *non-Muslims* ("most people", not just Xians) would think Koran overrated; and *non-Xians* ("most people")...

OK, yes. But that's not inconsistent with those also being the most influential books, so why is it a "curious formulation"?
