Is Allegorical Religion better than Fundamentalism?

In mere reality, atheists and agnostics are consistently and demonstrably more knowledgeable about religions and magic books than practitioners are.  It's more like the people who tend to know the most about these things just don't believe in them or even actively reject them, than that they'd only glimpsed the cover. Personally, it's not the absurd myths or the explicit lies or the historic revisionism that are a deal breaker for me. I enjoy mythology. It's the fundamental message that's a no-go.
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!
