Well, an atheist could read and memorize the Bible and still know
nothing.  I prove this every time I mention Hezekiah's tunnel.
Hezrekiah's tunnel and the verses of the Bible that describe its
construction do not fit with atheistic interpretation of the Bible, so
atheists will not discuss Hezekiah's tunnel.  An atheist is capable of
reading the entire Bible and still saying that Jesus Christ was just a
fictional character.
