How?

What do the Bible, “The Hunger Games” and “Fifty Shades of Grey” have in common? All three are works of fiction, according to the booksellers at Costco.

Some people say that there are so many ideas common between Buddhism and Christianity that it looks like New Testament is just Buddhist teachings re-sentenced.

Some people also believed that Jesus migrated to Kashmir after resurrection :)

As far as calling / labeling, religious scriptures as work of fiction, this indicate that non-religious people either don't know about the religions or they don't want to respect others beliefs.

Re: Bible is a fiction?

Well, in the first post you asked how Bible is work of fiction, and I told then reason how it is called a work of fiction.
Of course, there always will be struggle between believers and non-believers. Incidentally, saying that Jesus went to India is also an act of belief alone. Isn't it?

Re: Bible is a fiction?

How would an atheist explain incidents of Jesus (AS) curing blinds and waking the deads? Or the Noah's Ark ferrying all humans and animals left after that big disaster? or Namrood's Fire and Abraham (AS) or Moses' (AS)stick converting into a snake or partitioning of the red sea (?) and so on...

By this logic, their ideology can also be labelled as fiction, because its also based on some presumptions.
