If I'm not at all religious is it still worth reading the bible for the stories?

I don’t plan on taking it as a serious source of life advice, and I imagine there’s a lot I can safely skip, but there’s gotta be some good stories in there right? Must be a reason it’s so popular?

It won’t help you understand American Christians, but it will give you the language to own them.

It will give you the language to make you feel like you owned them while they go on the same as before. If owning religious bigots with their own texts actually worked it would have worked sometime in the last thousand years.
