Two thousand years ago, God felt it was imperative to initiate and implement some form of moral directive. The Bible's stories and teachings were designed to create a certain ideal mind-set in its followers, but its method was to draw upon much fiction in order to do so. So the Bible was not designed just to tell us all that was true, but what it wanted us to believe was true.
