Then you've forgotten any and everything.
I feel like I have to keep reminding you of this, it's really weird, but here we go; somebody can disagree with you about the bible, and the answer isn't necessarily "that person doesn't know as much as me." The truth of that book is not so self evident that you can sit back and just smugly assert that it's true and everyone who disagrees has clearly never read it.
Why do you feel like you can get away with not actually arguing?

Ah... 'properly' :p
Just read it as literature, one time. Just one time, leaf through the bible as though you'd never heard of christianity, and at the end of that session, ask yourself which characters qualify as the villains.
Take away your cultural context and really look.
