I have an open mind mate, I'm only saying that there is some crazy sht in that book and everyone reads it differently. I find other parts wise or beautiful but that does not mean I will blindly ignore the insane parts.
What I'm quite rightfully asking is who out there can actually read the bible and come up with the right answer to this threads question?
Seeking answers is a great start! We could discuss for days the various stories, and why this or that happened. Some things are there as examples of bad behavior, and some things, like food laws, were given to the Hebrew nation, not to all mankind. Context helps in sorting all this out. Yes, some other things can be confusing as well.
Just look to Jesus. Don't look at all us people that follow Him, because we are as flawed as anyone. People mess up that know better, and some use the whole thing to mislead. Some for profit, and some for evil. Some just screw up. See who He is. That's the key.
