@AnaMejiaP, have a question for you. But I'll answer yours first, to be fair. I'm an atheist, and I don't spend much time (if any time at all) considering the god hypothesis. But I was a Christian once, and one of the reasons I deconverted was because the bible is pettier than I am. And that is just silly to me because at that time I was doing basic courses in bio, and anyone who can create so much complexity in nature (which the bible claims) wouldn't care about what you eat or who you sleep with or who you marry. Not to mention all the other laws in the OT. I mean, that's just, if god was a person, he wouldn't be my friend because he gets mad at all the little things. Anyway, after that, I found more reasons to stop believing, which I won't bore you with.
So my question for you is: how do you know when the bible is literal and when it is metaphorical? Because no one seems to be able to agree on this.
