Eilonnwy happy hunting,I have read the bible personally from an objective point of view 4 times from cover to cover and I have found that the more I read it the more rediculous its stories sounded to me.I have relegated the bible to ancient mythology and nothing more it does have some historical facts mixed in but in my view it's mostly a work of fiction.
When I do argue about the bible I do from my having read it completely.Most christians argue from hearsay: "the pastor said that its in the bible in his sermon last Sunday".Very few of them have actually read it from cover to cover and most of them that do are afraid to question it.Although in my view the bible is not a valid document to argue the existence of god or defend christianity from.Its like trying to argue about the validity of a product using the product manufacturers own source materials.

There is nothing people will not maintain when they are slaves to superstition
