I wouldn't think your bias would be with the other stories. I'm only assuming, but I would guess your bias lies with the first story.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you may still be missing the point, GC. Because of your bias, you were unable to see the holes in the first story, so in order to reveal the holes, he presents other versions of the same story with the same level of rationale (that's not saying much) that support other religious ideas, which you called "maybe worse", showing your bias.
Anyhow, thanks for this video, TRS. It perfectly elucidates two things that I'm very guilty of: suspension of disbelief, and, curiously at the same time, an inability to tell good stories. I'll definitely be following him. Good find.

I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:
"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."
For context, this is the previous verse:
"Hi Jesus" -robvalue
