Wow are you a nut.
Seriously.
FYI, I am currently working on a documentary script that proves that not only is the bible NOT infallible, but it is flat wrong.
The verifiable evidence not only does not support bible stories, but regularly refutes it.
The fact is that the bible is firstly, a collectionhouse of Egyptian, Babylonian, Sumerian, and even Greek mythologies, translated for an israelite audience, and a fabricated history to justify the Judahites taking control of all israelite rites and practices.

There are more tactful ways of phrasing that sentiment. Please use them. :P

Interestingly, I also believe the Bible is an Ancient Aliens story, but what one makes of it is a different story. Plus, the Bible is book of miracles and "unexplainable" events. Remember Clarke's Three Laws:
  1. When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong.
  2. The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible.
  3. Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.

All three of those are rubbish :P

Oh! The decadence of "pay" TV, where the consumer gets not what he wants, but what advertisers and some "directives" want.
But I consider Clarke's Laws quite logical.

I suppose I'm not the most diplomatic, but it sure burns my britches when people demand that you live your life their way, according to rules they can't explain, from a book they could never verify.
We had a guy here named Mike Huckabee who, when running for president, wanted to replace the first 10 amendments with the 10 commandments.
Eeesh.
So much for "freedom".
btw, in case you disbelieve me, look up the Egyptian myth of Geb and Nut, and compare it to adam and eve, and see where I'm coming from.

And Noah's Ark is the re-telling of the Gilgamesh Epic. Taking the Old Testament in a literal manner is an error. But, undeniably, the moral contents of the Bible are a very strong influence in our society, despite its origins.
Not bad for an Ancient Aliens book , IMHO.

Oh, you don't have to go that far. You start running into issues with physical evidence before you've even got past the creation story.

I don't see EBM demanding anything, tbh.

I didn't see anyone else here demanding anything.
