How do you know they’re myths? Care to show us what you have to disprove things in the Bible?

We’ll just jump right in and start at the beginning. Gen 1:1 “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” Go ahead, tell us that the universe having a beginning is a myth. Give us your evidence that God had nothing to do with the existence of the universe, but that it’s a completely naturalistic phenomena.

I prefer the term “parable” - a way of explaining to our ancestors those things they did not yet have the math and science to understand the full scope of.

For that matter, we don’t have the science now to understand the full scope and may never. But we are making progress.
