Demythologize the Hebrew Bible.  You seem to assume that back then there was a magic universe different from our own.

We do not live in a magic universe with supernatural evens occurring as in biblical times.  Or as Bultmann said of NT cosmology, we do not live in a three story universe.  We need to demythologize.

What a perfect example of logical gobbelly-gook!


The question is not what is happening today, but did these events happen in the past? This is a historical question. What evidence is there for and against?


Demythologize what? Isn't that just a fancy term for imposing your religious faith onto another's statement without giving it an honest evaluation?
