Ok first let me please say that I do believe in god with that said I would also like to say that I dont believe in the bible at all. I feel that the bible is a fairy tale written by man. I honestly dont believe much in it but if I had to pick the one realistic thing in it it would be that god wants us to be good to each other and believe in him beyond that I feel is just a bunch of stuff that the men who wrote it made up to make a compeling story so that they could get more followers in their beliefs. The whole bible is pretty much unrealistic.Think about Noah and the ark deal. How would we get all the people on the earth today from just him and his family after the great flood.And wouldnt that have consisted of the family practicing incest. marrying girls off when they were 13 or so yet isnt that considered taboo now? If it was good enough for the bible why isnt it good enough now? Not that I think it should be but if its how god wanted things why arent we doing it. How about the ages of some of those people. They lived to be 900 years old or like that but yet we r lucky if we live to be 80. Well thats my opinions on your questions.

Realistic parts like Jesus probably lived and possibly did some parlor tricks that convinced a few people that he was somehow God's son.
Unrealistic parts
1. Noah built an arc and put two of every animal on it
2. Jesus never married or had kids
3. God would have only had one kid. If he really wanted to prove himself, why not a whole race of Divine beings?
4. All these people who were inspired to write the Bible had none of their own ambitions or influences.

Most of the bible is unrealistic! But I guess calling for some good things, such as "Thou shall not kill" is good and realistic.

Realistic. Well I will have to go with the Roman presence in Judea, the execution the flavor of the times.
