That was precisely what I got out of reading this letter. I think anytime someone tries to literally apply a historic document (the new and old testaments, the magna carta, the constitution....) to modern day life, they fall tragically short. Times change, and intelligently applying these ancient documents to our current lives is what's important. I think the author of this letter was poking fun at those who don't do that.
