The myth and characters are themselves cherry-picked from other religions and older myths. So yeh, christians cherry-pick, and so does christianity.

That seems to be a popular narrative, but when ever I ask the person making that claim to provide an example of the bible 'cherry picking' they can't ever seem to find a legit example of it.
And, of course, you are the arbiter of what is "legit".
