Do you really believe this?

Christians: Stories from the bible....or do you take them to be examples for people to use to find deeper meanings and apply to real life situations....like AA...i love those cool pins

Whoever likes the 1000 virgins: sounds like a drunk guy made that up.....but prob never been laid

Athesists: you don't believe any of it but support science, which is cool too cause I like protons and stuff

Update:

Then again you should not bash cause there are more of everything else out there...let people believe what they want cause youll turn into Jahovah Witnesses and go door to door...and force rednecks to make fun of u

Update 2:

thats alot of animals to fit into one boat

    I believe that some of the stories did happen (the flood (on a regional scale), Joseph, the Exodus, Jesus, Pentecost) but that the creation story is probably more religious and spiritual truth, possibly a commentary on something that changed early in human history, than it is literal history

    Most of the stories can be verified as true, so yes, I do believe them.

    I know it's cool to force yourself to be a rebel and berate the beliefs of others if they're not in your group, but that kind of behavior should have been left behind when you entered junior high school.

    Among adults, you're just a moron.

    I believe the Bible as I believe in God. The Bible is God's word, it isn't just "stories" as you claimed.

    I believe they are true stories from which we can learn something.

    The people above me that answered that they really believe in fairy tales is the exact reason I "berate" their beliefs. They must be incredibly stupid or incredibly brainwashed.
