You either need to hold that the Torah (5 books of moses) is true, and therefore God commanded all of the "fucked up shit". Or, someone changed everything, which means that nothing can be trusted, including the requirements of a Messiah. While the latter is a good gambit, given that Jesus could not fulfill the basic requirements (hence his change in attitude to the Pharisees in Matthew), it also wipes out all prophecy all together, since if you cannot trust one sentence, you cannot trust any of it.
But since you have not made you position known, I can only assume that it is from the former.
