I think the main reason that people don't believe in what the bible says, is because it is a kind of circular logic.
The two need to be seperated in your mind before you can come to an overall conclusion. Suspending your belief in one part of Christianity, and then using the other part to prove it to yourself doesn't really work out.
It's like me having 2 imaginary friends (A and B), and me saying that they are real people - however I know A exists because B says he does, and I know B exists because A says he does..
My point is that you need to take a step book and think "what if it is all wrong - God and the bible?".

Given our all-natural outlook, atheists think the Bible was written by people and accord it certainly no more than any other book - so your assertion that "it clearly says it in the bible" doesn't mean a whole lot to us. (Now if it clearly said something in a Richard Dawkins book... )

The Bible says nothing. It's a book. You can write anything in a book and it doesn't make it any more real. The Harry Potter books are about wizards and dragons... that doesn't mean that wizards and dragons really exist.
Saying anything is real or the truth "because the Bible says so" is utter nonsense. It's no different from saying Darth Vader really exists because he was in the Star Wars films

lol.... the bible was written 2000 years ago by a bunch of sheepherders who believed the world was flat and it talks about a man is born the son of a god by immaculate conception, water turns into wine, a man walks on water, a snake talks, a stick turns into a snake, a sea parts, and a man rises from the dead after three days, a bush talks, mankind was created from dirt, woman was created from a man’s rib, with a supposedly loving god that throws people into hell to be tortured for eternity if they didn’t do what he says during life, AND this book supports intolerance, and the promotion of prejudice and denial of the human rights of human beings like deriding homosexuality, and abortion, and the followers are EXTREMELY judgemental.
THAT is NOT logical. Its completely INSANE.

The Quran clearly says a lot of things, too. What about that?

Who told you the bible was actual fact? Its just some guys' interpretation of incidents that may have happened. there is no actual fact in it whatsoever. So, there isn't anything to believe in it. Besides, Grimms fairy tales says there are fairies and magic, do you believe that?
