Quote: Hi there. I've been trying to read the bible to see firsthand the inconsistencies and horrible stuff present in there.
Quote: Strange, isn't it? He lays out his entire approach and thought process, so that everyone understands what it is he's doing... except himself
Quote: I was expecting the usual attempts to obfuscate the wishful thinking involved, at least. Guy just laid it all out there!
If you just want to read the contradictions and dodgy stuff, Google "weird shit in the bible" or similar.
But if you're specifically looking for the dodgy stuff, and you want to skip to the rubbish parts, why bother? You're going in with your conclusion in mind and looking for evidence to support it. Much as a Christian who goes looking for evidence to support his intelligent design belief.
Besides, you're an atheist and thus unqualified to read the bible

Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength, I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken."
