They don't know anything about him, should he exist. It's just silly stories.
It is only silly stories so long as the only possible use of a story is to convey actual history. But who believes that?
That's the irony. The actual meaning of the story, where there is one, is often lost on the theist but not on the atheist. The theist is desparate for theological meaning, and so misses the social commentary perspective.
