RE: Do you think you'd still be a believer if the bible were more pleasant/accurate?

I didn't like consciously think, "There is no scientific evidence to believe in anything in the Bible, therefore I shall no longer believe in any of it."
I just kind of stopped believing in it, the same way we stop believing Santa was real,the same way we stopped believing it was a good idea to grab a candle flame. I didn't ask for evidence, I asked God to deliver on his promises and he didn't,not once.
So I think I just kind of grew out of it. It no longer became significant to my life whether anything they taught us at church were true.
