Yeah, no. Say what you want about the spirituality or the supernatural that occurs in the Bible, but historically speaking it is one of the more historically accurate documents of the era, and much of what occurs in the Bible is historically verifiable. I would also object to calling it poorly written; there is a reason why thousands of scholars across the globe dedicate their lives to this day studying Biblical scripture. Simply dismissing it as 'Poorly-written 2,000 year-old fanfiction' just because you don't happen to follow the faith shows how astoundingly ignorant you are of its content and background, possibly even more so than the fundies who take it literally as God's word.

Also, despite your brilliant point, the Bible says nothing of Christ being born on December 25th.
