Exactly, they cherry pick. They choose to do the good things that the bible says, and they ignore the bad things. Most religious people, for that very reason, are not harmful.

Nor are they rationally consistent about the book they believe in. They could do good things and not do bad things without being inconsistent in Christian beliefs - if they didn't have them.

Some religious people are harmful because they take some bad bits literally. This is one way of believing in the bible - but it's impossible to negatively follow the bad bits of the bible you don't believe in it at all.
