Hmmmmmm, well that certainly tracks with human behavior. Kind of like how there was a meme that the earth was flat. Nobody actually BELIEVED it. It was just a funny joke to explain why sailors would come in, and then sail off, and you’d never see that sailor again.

So, ha ha, funny meme, earth is flat.

Then hundreds of years later, people discovered that people “used to believe the earth was flat”. Wow. What stupid people those guys were hundreds of years ago, huh?

Then it gets discovered nobody ACTUALLY believed that…but they do NOW. You know. Currently. AFTER we’ve been to space, and photographed the planet while not currently being on said planet. Only AFTER space travel did people revisit the earth being flat, and seriously unironically believe that.

So I can’t believe ANY of the bullshit IN the bible. But I can totally believe it began as a meme, got out of control, and now it’s just “fact” to some people.

…and by “some people” I mean gullible morons.
