I think you have to look at this not so literally. The bible, for those who believe in it, is more a reference for their faith, rather than being the absolute truth. Christianity is based on the belief that Christ died for our sins. If you take the bible as being a representation of this belief and not a literal doctrine then it's easier to look at it objectively. There are certainly many messages and verses in the bible that are intended as literal teachings, but any self respecting adult will know to understand the bible for what it is. It's more like a dictionary for Christianity, in my opinion.
Is it normal that I think ppl who believe the bible are idiots?(sry)
