Even nonreligious people learn stories from the bible to discern meraphors/etc from popular writers over American history.

Sorry but I have no idea what you're trying to say in this sentence.

The point is that the bible is referenced a lot.

It's like how you can never watch a star wars movie but know Darth Vader says something like "Luke, I am your father". Or live in Canada and never watch hockey but know who Wayne Gretzky is. I never read the Quran but know Mohammed went to the mountain.

Unless you plug your ears a lot idk how you wouldn't know at a few bible references if you lived in a Christian-majority country (even if people around you are largely atheist or agnostic)
