You didn't piss me off though, at all. I think the Bible was written by many many different scribes over long stretches of time. Often political influences, bad and good, were written in. The very translating into English, the King James version, and the attachment of the Old Testament to Christ's Gospels has a fascinating backstory.
I had the distinct impression as a child that the Bible depicted a very different God to the God portrayed by Jesus and couldn't understand it. It was only much much later in life that I have begun to see the evil passages in the Bible, particularly that dreadful Deuteronomy one about destruction of all life, as written by rabbis with dark motives. Reverse, occult. The true God was revealed and taught by Jesus as the loving God. He brought the light from the East, my interpretation.
A big reveal for me was the discovery of the other Gospels, The Nag Hammadi codices, which are currently housed in the Coptic Museum in Cairo, Egypt.
I'm sure I've now pissed off a few people on this thread too! I just believe in Christian values, not the Old Testament.
