i haven't read the entire bible so i can't say whether it is 100% anything.
i'm a highly sinical aethiest (that can't spell to save his life), so naturally i believe near to nothing in the bible that i know of. true it can give good messages across, but any fictional story can have a high moral message behind it.
now there are some parts that could well be true, though because i don't believe in the main foundations, i then dismiss stories that could well be true.
like a witness in a court case, you simply need to prove that one thing they said was a lie, and then you can invalidate everything else they say on those grounds, even if they are actually speaking the truth.
now i'm not saying that i can PROVE that anything in the bible is false, though looking at its feasibility would lead me not to believe that it is true. you could almost call it a sort of faith, but in my own deductions, rather than the writtings of others.
though i have faith in other people's deductions too e.g. darwinism
all in all, no one can be sure of anything in bible or anything for that matter unless they were alive at the time of the content (i doubt anyone alive now was alive at the time of jesus and moses etc.)
