It's not atheists demanding that the wild utterances of magic book be thought of as facts. Atheists tend to think that the bible is chock full of metaphor, allegory, just so stories, the ramblings of madmen, social commentary, and sometimes...the odd bit of porn.
It's the afflicted and the afflicted alone who insist that any word of it must be a fact, and even a scientific fact. That's why they're mining the story about mud man, rib woman, and the fruit dragon... and deciding it's short hand for "theistic evolution".

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!
