That isn't really the point, is it? And it is debatable. I have read and carefully studied the Bible. Unlike you. Like you, however, I loathe religion and its influence. I recognize the Bible as absolute truth and you can only judge it by religious misrepresentation.
Anyway, since absolute truth is no more within your own abilities you can only speculate about my own.
Bottom line is that you have to come to some understanding beyond religious to criticize the Bible and that you won't do because it is all nothing more than political and social repression anyway.
You are short sighted.
