The Christians and Jews that "Get it" either have not actually read the Bible and so they believe what they are told, or do not look closely enough when they did.
Furthermore, you stance is an argument from incredulity. Just because you can't believe the Bible was created and read by millions of people with so many contradictions, doesn't mean they don't exist.
That's the best post I've ever seen you make. I have seen evidence of text that is problematic. Never any contradictions as you claim. Sure there are plenty refuted examples. I will assume that you refer to these.
