The people who wrote the Old Test. wrote terrible stories to keep people in line by the threat of God's punishment. The new testament was put together 200 yrs after Christ with some writings of the apostles and has been translated and retranslated many times and even slanted at times to conform to whatever regulations the Church put into place. That is why the Bible should not be taken literally. It is not a scientific document but a spiritual teaching document. You must remember that most people of the time were iliterate and creating stories to explain religion was the only means the members of early Christianity had. They believed in Christ as God and wanted to document it and spread the word. If they came back today and were educated I bet they'd be very surprised at what it now says and that people take it literally.

People explain things based on what they know and have experienced. No religion or person (in my opinion) has the answers to everything. Some of the things you "quote" might have been written in context of what were cultural norms at the time it was written. Some people may consider you are arrogant and others may just think you are curious and want to know. Most times things change the more we know about them. Some people don't want to know and for things not to change. Change can be scary or it can be exhilarating. We each have to decide for our selves. Consider it the power of naming and perspective.

That doesn't make them not true. I don't understand Algebra or a lot of mathematics after addition and subtraction but that doesn't mean they have no basis in truth. For example: let's say you have this disease and from all your research you know it can do such and such things, OK? So one day you come down with these other symptoms that aren't as far as you know related to your disease. So what do you do? You go to a Dr. A professional. A specialist. Someone who has studied your particular disease. You ask questions and get answers. If there are things about the Bible you don't understand, then go speak to a professional. Someone who has studied this particular passage and can give you the answers you seek instead of just sitting there and complaining about it. A pastor, minister or reverend, is just that professional. A specialist in the Bible. Someone who has studied and understands all the so called "inconsistencies" As I have stated, there are many many things I don't understand. That doen'st stop me from believing.

If you read the book from beginning to end like a Stephen King novel, it's really a great read. It's got it all, sex, murder, joy, sadness, action, war and even magik. Man this book has it all, but you can't take it too seriously. Because it was a great story written by an average man who was very charismatic.
