the bible is a valuable historical documenation of life ages ago , and it also gives some people a reason to blame everything on somebody else.  If one believes that knowing the bible makes them of purer heart in God's eyes, then I will go along with your delusional theory.  But to say that God doesn't exist because parables in the bible are questionable is just too judgmental, condescending and unnecessary. It's like saying that someone with an education is always and automatically smarter than someone who has none.  Half of the people I went to college with (quite a few years ago) couldn't find their way out of a paper bag with written instructions, but could fake it well. I'm certain that the primary reason most believe in God or a higher being is totally because of mankind.


Man doesn't have what it takes to create beauty that is pure and simple and lasting. He's had thousands of years, ain't happened.  He destroys.  The hope that there is something else, something better, is what has kept people hopeful for millenia. The hope that there is something that will protect or avenge them from the evil of other human beings. "Hope"  It's not quite the same as being a Nazi.
