Rok, people must be able to read religious books literally. That's something a "divine book" must have. Because if not, everybody could come up with any fictional thing, and under any criticism they would say, "no it doesn't mean this, it meant something else". The words shouldn't say something and then expect people to get another meaning. Remember, different age/culture/sex read the book, the book must have literal meaning.

But considering that it was written like 3000, 4000, dunno, years ago, couldn't it be a clever allegory of big bang and evolution and stuff?
I think you just touched the reason atheists have problems with religionI think most atheists have no problem with people having their own religion and their own ways of dealing with it.
The problem is with people who claim authority and use the bible (or really any other religious book) to serve their own purposes.

As for the 10 commandments: should children honour abusive parents? Should hospitals be closed on sunday?

And thirdly, the code is more what you call "guidelines" than actual rules.
