I think the Bible may well prove that people noticed events such as floods inundating them or people being convicted and executed and wrote about it. Quite why you should base your beliefs and behaviour around this escapes me. After all you can read much the same thing in your local paper.
It would be bizarre if the Bible were completely made up, but perfectly logical that it should refer to historical events. The question remains, why do you base your behaviour and belief system on it?

the Old Testament is written today is exactly the same way it was written in ancient times,

Apart from being printed on paper in English, rather than written on papyrus, animal skins and copper, in the Hebrew and Aramaic languages with little punctuation. In fact 'not written in exactly the same way as it was written in ancient times' would appear to sum it up*
*Unless Russ actually reads it in Hebrew and Aramaic from papyrus and animal skins with no punctuation in which case I marvel at his dedication.
