That tactic is no different than saying “either you believe in a literal interpretation of the entire Bible, or you don’t believe in any of the Bible”. It’s a dishonest tactic to try and force people to believe things that are clearly not true...such as Noah and the Ark, and Jonah and the great fish. Using such a dishonest tactic does a tremendous disservice to the faith of Christianity, and it pushes people away from Jesus. Denying scientific knowledge because it threatens one’s faith shows a real weakness in one’s faith. Some of the stuff in the Bible is clearly allegorical...some people realize that, and some don’t.

You actually believe "Noah and the Ark, and Johan and the great fish" are not true? How about a virgin birth? That's not verified by any scientific study. How about Jesus rising from the dead? That's not verified by any scientific study. Do you believe Jesus actually ascended into Heaven while the disciples looked on? That's not documented by any scientific study.

Just how do you decide what to believe?

Believing Bible stories does not push anyone away from God. People decide on their own to either believe or not on their own.
