But those two books over all are amazing. I understand your sentiment but I don't think you are doing the Bible justice.
What did you think of gods all night homoerotic wresting encounter with Jacob? Strange that god had to cheat to win a wrestling match is it not.
"That night Jacob got up and took his two wives, his two female servants and his eleven sons and crossed the ford of the Jabbok. 23 After he had sent them across the stream, he sent over all his possessions. 24 So Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him till daybreak. 25 When the man saw that he could not overpower him, he touched the socket of Jacob’s hip so that his hip was wrenched as he wrestled with the man. 26 Then the man said, “Let me go, for it is daybreak.”
But Jacob replied, “I will not let you go unless you bless me.”
27 The man asked him, “What is your name?”
“Jacob,” he answered.
28 Then the man said, “Your name will no longer be Jacob, but Israel,[a] because you have struggled with God and with humans and have overcome.”
I've often been left alone and never has a bout of random wrestling broken out WTF is this all about.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
