The whole purpose of organised religion is to keep people under control for the ones spewing the nonsense. The stories of the old guy can even be partly understood as an attempt at lawmaking for half nomadic desert dwellers, barbaric as they are.
But it all comes down to picking and choosing, since Jesus himself said, he didn't come to change one iota of the law. The rest is just window dressing, since no christian believing the books can honestly say that god changed his mind. Take it from the mouth of Jesus. The old vengeful guy is still very much in business.
In fact that's the main reason curing me from religion once and for all. I didn't see any reason for worshipping such an evil being. And by the way, the trinity basically means that god sacrificed himself to himself.
