alright try to stay with me here:
1. the 10 commandments were made to try and keep the morality of society in high regard
2. god was concieved in mans mind to explain things that he could not explain himself
3. the bible uses phrases that can be interpreted in several different ways giving the illusion of a specific meaning, and causing people to believe that it fortells prophecies, like how a fake psychic seems to tell your fortune, but you dont realize its a scam
4. many others like nostradamus and confucious have fortold things that have happened, 9/11, ww2, american revolution, and the people who wrote the bible told to warn of false prophets who would foretell things that came true so that the bible itself would seem to be foretelling future events, i.e. the inevitable coming of new prophets
5. hell was concieved as an alternative to heaven where great torment and suffering would take place, in order to frighten people into accepting christianity so they wouldnt endure it
