It doesn't matter if you are a believer or not. Knowledge of the Bible is necessary to be a educated person in a Western society. That's a very good, and important, point. The Bible's stories, lessons, and morals, will serve one well regardless of one's religion, or for that matter, lack of same.
And as was pointed out earlier, it's part of the foundation of our Great Nation, and deserves consideration for that alone, even if one does not acknowledge it as Holy Scripture.
