Nope, it happens quite often, that's why there's thousands of different denominations who each think they have it spot on.
Quote: For if I was, they explain, I'd have no doubts. I'm wondering what opinion you have on their observation they have about people like you and me. (By saying you and me, I'm not saying I share the certainty of you atheism, I'm saying share your doubts about the clarity of the Bible.)
Like I said, their opinion is bullshit.
You don't believe exactly as they believe, so you're not a True Christian™.
Millions of Christians disagree with each other on so many aspects of their own religion. Millions more simply pick and choose what they want to believe to suit them, which results in millions of Christians each with their own versions of their religion. Further evidence that, even if their god did communicate to the world in such an ambiguous way, they've all got it completely wrong.
This is more reasoning which leads me to the understanding that the bible is bollocks.
