Should Atheists Insist on Biblical Literalism?

My answer is YES, and here is why:

So, given the extraordinary nature of the claims of Christianity, I think that there should be extraordinary proof of the events. Yet, Christianity cannot give even ordinary proof:

The most important message of the New Testament is that one should treat their fellow human beings as they would like to be treated them self. That and nearly every worthwhile part of the New Testament can be found in Humanism, so I have no reason to believe the Jesus story and every reason to question it.

The hope offered by the Jesus story is that we will have eternal life. I believe that to be pure delusion!

If the facts don't fit, I'd quit! Become an atheistic humanist!
