Don't have to read The Bible to reject Christianity. Right?

I sure see a lot of Bible-thumping around here. Why do Christians insist on telling us we should read the bible?
Telling us "That's not what it says!" after we misinterpret their interpretaion, then, giving us a new one! I don't care what it says!
In the words of Sam Harris, it's "playing tennis without the net". What point is there to arguing biblical scripture when there is no consensus even on the same pew of a church on the right way to read it??
They can't even agree on exactly what hell is, or the Christian stance towards social issues such as Gay marriage. These people are lemmings that are constantly searching for someone, thing, or book to tell them how to live their lives. Why would I care what they think when they can't think for themselves? Its perpetual circular logic, but they seem to think it should BE CONTAGIOUS! Look...
Bob doesn't know what to think.
Jim says he doesn't either, but has a reliable thinking process he uses to understand other things, and would like to share it with Bob.
Bob doesn't want to hear it from Jim.
Bob finds a book.
The book tells Bob what to think.
Bob now wants to tell Jim what to think.
Jim can think for himself, and tells Bob to fuck off.
Bob judges Jim for his lack of knowledge pertaining to his book.
Jim thinks Bob is a nutsack.
