I would accept something someone who has proven that they know what they are talking about says; for example, I do not understand all the inner workings of my car, but I will trust an experienced mechanic's version of what is wrong with it, based on his extensive record of successfully repairing cars. Still, I would want, at least, some understanding of the problem, before I hand him/her over my money. If I do not understand anything and he says, "Simply give me 500 bucks, and I'll fix your car", then he will be out of luck.

You accept the bible as what? Myth or reality, literally or in some other way?
Do you believe in real talking serpents and donkeys for instance?
Given that Yahweh is a Jewish androgynous god, is that the way you see him/her?

As Mark Twain once said: " It is full of interest, it has some noble poetry in it and some clever fables, some blood drenched history and some good morals, a wealth of obscenity and upwards of a thousand lies." (Speaking of the Bible.)
And I HAVE TO agree with Issac Asimov: "Properly read, the Bible is the most potent force for atheism ever conceived."
Yes, understanding is synonymous with acceptance, and every year science is more and more "understood", and mythology …. not so much.
