Which parts do you think are accurate?

Because at least in my case I have studied the bible and worshiped your god and practiced Christianity devoutly. It was my search for truth that led me away from the bible. It is my opinion that any intellectually honest individual that reads that bible from an objective point of view will come away believing in it less. Most of the science in the bible has been proven wrong, strip away the miraculous and the histories related in scripture are skewed and in many cases unverifiable.
Sorry about that, my question was not really accurate so I edited it but you responded before I finished.
Do you think that those scholars that take a position opposite to the Bible are not biased?
