The bible was probably no more than a collection of stories written for the amusement of children, much like fairy tales. Somehow, it became twisted and altered over years and developed into a religious text. Unfortunately, it's still a book of fairy tales.
My opinion: The bible is an epic work of fiction that has countless readers. Since it has existed for a long time, there are true stories in there too, but of course, those have been changed throughout the course of history.

I hate to answer all your questions in the same way, but I read a really great brochure called "A Book for All People." It is written in such a way so as to appeal to religious-minded and non-religious-minded people alike in that it simply states undisputed facts about the Bible such as the following:
What Other Book
· has influenced as much of the world’s greatest art, literature, and music, while also having a profound impact on law?
· has survived thousands of years of recopying by human hand and yet has come down to us essentially as it was written?
· has inspired such unselfishness that some have been willing to suffer hardships and even risk death in order to translate it?
· has been translated into more than 2,100 languages, making it available to over 90 percent of the human family?
· mentions scientific truths not discovered until many centuries later?
· contains timeless principles that can help people of all racial, ethnic, and national backgrounds to improve their lot in life?
· contains unambiguous predictions that came true, as proved by historical facts?
Would it not be worth examining such a book?
I can send you a copy for free if you want it. :)

God has made clear the truths in many different ways and we should always seek those truths in peace where we find them

I believe all scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works. 2 Timothy 3: 16,17
Ephesians 4:3,4,5,6: Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling,
One Lord, one Faith, one baptism,
One God and Father of all, who is above all and through all and in you all.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
Romans 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God.
Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Romans 10:9,10...That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus and shalt believe in thy heart that God has raised him from the dead thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
Romans 6:3,4 Know ye not that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death; that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father even so we also should walk in newness of life. (Baptism is not sprinkling but being buried in the water, immersed) Look at my personal info if you would like to know more, because I could go on and on telling God's word. Thank-you for your question.

The bible is completely fictitious garbage. Two purposes, kindling and toilet paper.
