the point i’m making is that the bible(and many other “religious” texts,) cannot be relied on to reveal what or who god is or how god wishes for us to conduct ourselves if we take its words at literal face value.
Well, if you're defining God that way, then you've included the conclusion in the definition.
That's why most Christians in history have not read the Old Testament at literal face value. They've devoted a lot of effort to figuring out who god is or how he wishes us to conduct ourselves, beyond literal readings.
