Either it is the word of God, or it is a complete lie. I believe it is God's word, so therefore I believe all of it.
And your question about how the bible teaches the Earth is flat is not true. The bible teaches the Earth to be round. The verse you use is the one with the four corners of the Earth, and it is in reference to Jerusalem the center of God's World.

At best, the bible is a collection of parables intended to teach lessons. Much the same as ancient Greek and Roman mythology. So it would correct to say that the bible is Christian Mythology and was never intended to be taken literally.

Yes. I believe everything that Bible has to say about WHO God is and WHAT he expects for my life. For that is what the Bible is for.

Yes.... Some of it is symbolical, and I believe its symbolical meaning, so yes, I believe all of the bible.

I haven't read "all of it".
As for what I have read,
I question some,
believe other parts,
and live by the really great stuff.

Nope
I would treat it more as a book of fables - fictional stories with a moral underline, than as an actual historical document.

I have my doubts about the talking donkey, but other than that, I pretty much believe all of it. Oh, but I think the story of Job is more of a parable than anything.

Every single word. Didn't use to, but now I do. The Holy Spirit has a way of convicting you when you ask Jesus into your heart.
