The Religion/Secular Debate

To me, thus far, the issue of Biblical historicity, accuracy and relevance does not seem irrefutably resolvable since (a) it seems to involve claims that do not seem substantiated beyond estimation, and (b) viable alternatives seem to exist for the conclusions apparently drawn from said estimation.

Apparently as a result, I seem to have shifted my focus toward the issue that seems to underlie the issue of Biblical historicity, accuracy and relevance: optimal strategy for achieving optimal human experience. To me, the apparent Biblical strategy for achieving optimal human experience seems substantiatable based upon science and secularly history alone, whether Biblical anecdotes are historical fact or allegory.
