I think your views grasshopper on the bible are extremely progressive compared to most christians. I commend you.
The thing I don't get though is that you can see the OT to be made up garbage, yet you put religious faith (I presume) into the NT? How can you think there's any ring of truth in there, that the people compiling and editing the bible just happened to start writing true stuff near the end? I'm not having a go, I just can't understand the thinking there.
I agree taking what you find useful from any book is good, but what makes you want to identify as a christian? What does that mean to you?
