In short you were never taught to worship the God of the bible. You were given a picture of God in your religion, and assumed it is correct. But, when you compared that religious picture of God to what is written in the bible, you found it to be in error.
Your problem is not with Genesis. It is with who you think God to be, and because you can not reconcile your personal understanding of God with the description of God found in the bible, you assume the bible is in error. If you took the time to take an honest look at the God of the bible and build your understanding of God off of the bible alone you would not find error nor contradiction.
The sad thing is you no doubt think this good advice.
