I've read the book. It's Margaret Atwood indulging herself in feminist fearmongering about Christian patriarchy while knowing very little about Christianity. Those people's Bible is a few snippets of Genesis, with fail hermeneutics, possibly because Atwood herself didn't make it past Genesis and therefore didn't get to learn about Jesus.
It's like Atwood thinks that religions are interchangeable and that Christianity could turn Islam almost overnight and then add on some pagan-inspired seasonal human sacrifice rituals to satisfy the female population's suppressed anger.
