i don't mind people who are obessed with the bible, although i do believe a "god" is just possible as impossible, something about the bible seems connect with human nature (idk if its because of the vastness of it covers everything, the quality of its text, or the massive historical influence on culture it had) but either way, it seems to be a really common redemption path a lot of people who hit rock bottom tend to use and so long as the person isn't overbearing or zealous, i think the bible's influence on the word is a net positive post printing press (you can disagree with this, but only if you acknowledge the positives the bible's influence had as well as acknowledge that you can replace the bible with anything else and the corrupt torturer priest would still do their shit)

That said, i do feel like the bible is a sort of fallacy, if live by it good for you, but otherwise the bible doesn't address the advancement of technology (inb4 "human nature doesn't change" argument when technology advances faster then culture) the bible does come off as really dated, it still has its spritial uses, but the stories and context of if the bible is going to be outdated and unrelatable in the near future, and if you do believe in the spirituality of Christianity, it can be argued that god gave you a brain to use and realize that the bible was made for a certain yet impotant era of human development, and even then at that the bible is most relevant and "strongest" of all the abrahamic religions in the modern day.
