It's inspired to be useful for the purpose God intended it for. The story of "the three little pigs" is not historically or scientifically correct, but it wasn't written for that reason. It was written to teach a lesson about life and that's what we read it for. God inspired the bible to lead us to Christ and that's what it's profitable for.
So, are you admitting that the Bible is not to be taken literally? Pardon me, but many theists would argue that it is a literal account of historical events. Also, if you suggest that it is simply inspired material, rather than the actual words of God, then that basically just confirms our arguments against theists. By saying that it was inspired, and not a compilation of literal facts, then doesn't that make the stories untrue...and therefore proving that your God doesn't exist because he doesn't lie? Last time I checked, fairy tales or stories are not true, and are actually lies.
