It would be filled with sex, drugs, and rock and roll. There would be a book on every thing you need to know about going to war, and another book on how to become a born again homosexual. It would have a special book just for Atheist, and 100 verses of Psalm for the agnostic.

The Bible would not be any different.
It is as good now as it has always been.
It is a God's life manual for the people' and you are not allowed to take anything away from it or/and add anything.
It is not a book of theories, there are other books for that.
In order to respect your free choice, God has made the evidence of Christianity convincing but not compelling.
If you want to suppress or ignore the evidence all around you (Rom1:18-20) - then you are free to do so.
You can reject Christ, but you cannot honestly say that there's not enough evidence to believe Him.

Genesis would be different, I saw a documentary suggesting that the miracles of the Exodus were all caused by a volcanic eruption, so that would talk about God's divine timing as opposed to magical powers. Yeah esentially some parts would be re-written so that God wasn't made out to be a magician.

As the Bible is a book of religious faith, not a book of science, it would not be any different. It would still hold the same truths about the human condition and the need for salvation. Nothing in science has changed either of those.

It wouldn't be written at all... and it shouldn't exist now, except as a historical literary curiosity. Today, there is no need for Bronze Age myths, superstitions and fairy tales, or a god that can be eaten in the form of a cracker.

Shorter. No resurrection (therefore no need for four completely different stories about it!), no parting of the Red Sea, no miracles or superstitious nonsense of any kind. It might look like the Jefferson Bible, with only the practical teachings of Jesus and nothing else.

definitely!
the bible was written to include the prejudices of the day, therefore if it was written now, without the influence of the old edition, it would include information important to our modern times, including our prejudices.
god is a reflection of the times. values don't necessarily have to change, but they way they are followed or explained change throughout time.

I think much of what is in Genesis would be re-written, but the rest is not bad.

Then Bible will be a pure historic book. No more God.
