So how do you recommend approaching such a text? Well, IMNSHO starting with the assumption that ancient peoples believed in literal jars in the sky pouring water from above would be a remarkably ignorant and arrogant hueristic.
Yeah, atheists, are you so ignorant that you think that Christians actually believe all that crap from the Bible? It is so arrogantly ignorant that you think that Christians believe that a man lived in a belly of a big fish, or that donkey talked, and you are at your dumbest when you think that Christians believe that a virgin got pregnant and then some dumb carpenter walked on water and resurrected from the dead. I mean give me a break!
Actually, I've yet to meet a Jehovah's Witness who didn't believe all that crap.
