Any tips on reading the bible for an atheist?

RE: Any tips on reading the bible for an atheist?
A few years ago, I decided to read the Bible, just because it's the most influential book in human history, so I figured I should see what all the fuss is about. I also wanted to read the Koran, Analects of Confucius, and a few other major books from history to better understand how they influenced human culture and history.

I was actually staying at a hotel, and I considered stealing the Bible from the room there, but decided to be more honest than that and go buy one from a book store instead. I remember being surprised that I didn't have to pay tax on the Bible. In retrospect, that kinda pisses me off. So I got it home and started reading. I don't know if I even got all the way through Genesis. ADHD and the Bible just don't mix.
