That's part of its charm. Any asshole can point to it and say "god says I', right."
Sure?
He said 'almost' and I think that's accurrate. EG The Torah contains support for such action as; Murder of children (for being disobedient.) ,slavery, infanticide, ,incest,cannibalism, human sacrifice and genocide as well as a broad range of positive moral imperatives which may or may not apply to non believers..
Each of the Abrahamic faiths contain so many blatant contadictions that the believer is forced to cherry pick, choosing that which best reflects his society and personal character.
