That's an opinion strongly influenced by the structure of abrahamic belief - not in any way a fact of humanity.
Anywho, yeah, I take people at their word when they describe their beliefs. What else should I do? They tell me that they think the book is magic..it hardly matters whether or not it actually is, that's what they believe. You believe as much as well. The negative connotation of the word being the thing you object to, not the content. Even if we supposed, for pure lulz...that we're living in a simulation created by some..whatever..the bible has nothing to do with that. Neither do any of our other magic books. If they did, that would be some powerful magic, since theres no way that the authors could have known anything about that, and did not intend to write anything about that, and in fact didn't write anything about that.
Then, somehow™, that just popped up in there.
OFC it didn't. As you mentioned so simply in the OP and in the thread title, this is a way to rationalize your view of christianity, this is the way you rationalize your magic book. It makes absolutely no sense whatsoever, and achieves no obvious purpose.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
