An omniscient being could easily author a book so consistent that you couldn't go to one verse and use it to make the opposite point that another verse does. Heck, if it had been written by one human, we would expect fewer verses at odds with each other. That atheists and Christians can both cherry pick to make their cases only underscores how inconsistent your scriptures are. And 90% of the time, that's the point the atheist is trying to make: 'Hey, Christian, you're cherry picking by ignoring this verse over here that says the opposite of what you say the Bible says!'
Here's the thing, I've seen no contradictions in scripture, one has to study the whole of scripture to see it's truth outside of that it's cherry picking.

You also think ad hoc explanations are a valid way of resolving apparent contradictions, based on the assumption that there can't possibly be a real contradiction in the Bible.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
