I think you have to take the Bible in context in its entirety, and I'm not pretending that's easy or straightforward.

But if you want to search for the truth it's in there.
I agree that you cannot ignore any parts of the bible. This is why I cannot believe in it. The evil far outweighs the good, and I want to be a moral person, therefore I cannot in good conscience believe in the Bible.
Fight the good fight, and die with the enemy's heart in your hand.
