I did not say nor do I consider the book flawed. It serves the purpose for which it was intended. What I did say was that I consider it a flawed approach to base your understanding of cosmology etc on the Bible.
Since you asked why I spread the Gospel, it is because it promises victory over the obsessions and compulsions that enslave us. The Good News is not a "get out of hell free card", but rather deliverance as part of our everyday lives.
Note to Moderators: I am responding to a question about the Gospel and not preaching.
