"God Hates You, Hate Him Back" by CJ Werleman. Amazon link
If you haven't read "God Hates You, Hate Him Back" by CJ Werleman - I highly recommend it.
Particularly if you were raised Christian and think that you knew the Bible. I memorized most of it, and I was still amazed by this book.
Werleman breaks down the Christian bible (Protestant version), chapter by chapter, and summarizes it while pointing out the inconsistencies, the absurdities, and all of the many instances where the main characters are genocidal, homophobic, misogynistic, and misanthropic - with humor and wit.
Now, as some reviewers have said, the format can get a bit old. Nearly the whole book is made up of a bible quote, and then some variant of an "are you f*cking kidding me?" reaction. But it's still worth a read. In fact, I wish I could get some christian friends to read it. (sigh) His take down of the story of Samson had me laughing out loud.
