Pike was a traitor Confederate doing Kabbalah that infiltrated the Deist American lodges after the Civil War until we ended up in the world we have today. Pike was writing comparative history to justify his new vision, which includes religious history. He just wasn't very good at it. If you're going to limit yourself and exclude Narratology (researching story origins by their narratives and history) just to preserve your faith in the story itself then do so, but don't do it because some controversial guy you dislike did a poor job of it back in the 1800s.

The bible has a history in its composition because it's scrolls collected over time and bonded into one.
