Mister Sir Ryantology. Its not the issue about the Good Book, but the people who mis-translate it.
These stories were passed down by word of mouth decades or centuries before they were ever first committed to writing. Are you familiar with the game 'Telephone'? The Bible is a Telephone game which has gone on for millennia. There is no chance that any modern text is anywhere close to the same as it started. Mistranslations and misinterpretations abound (as if there was any way to determine which interpretation is accurate to begin with).
tl;dr: the entire Bible is worthless garbage.
