So every time the nt used 'biblical prophesy' to prove Jesus'supposed divinity, they were simply talking about fairy stories?

Seeing as you just stated the bible has no basis in fact* what actually separates you from atheists?

*That's a problem more modern outlook christians have, when they call the ot, and even parts of the nt allegory. The whole story depends on every part of it being taken as literally true, there are too many parts which depend on literalist readings of prior parts for any other possible reading to be feasible, and to still hold belief.

Well even if the OT is taken as entirely symbolic, if there were legitimate prophecies in there which came true, it's still prophetic as it's written hundreds of years beforehand.

The problem, of course, is that the OT prophecies fulfilled in the OT were written after the fact, and the OT prophecies fulfilled in the NT were complete lies. For example there is the "virgin birth," a fulfillment of Isaiah 7. Yet if you read Isaiah 7 it is about a king being shown a sign that his city would not be sacked, so I don't see how a dude being born 500 years later is a sign to this king of anything. Other NT claims of fulfilled prophecy are also lies.
Jesus is like Pinocchio.  He's the bastard son of a carpenter. And a liar. And he wishes he was real.
