So I'm Reading the Bible

I've been posting Facebook statuses lately with brief comments on the bible, which I've now begun to read from front to back.

While I try not to judge any book by its first few chapters, I'd like to at least say that I'm not impressed so far. I've read from Genesis to Joshua, and it's quite astounding how much of it has already confirmed what I had learned indirectly: this book is quite fucked up, and its moral instructions are thus far much worse than I thought they would be.

Anyway, since I'm only a few books into the Old Testament, I will respectfully reserve judgment until the end. I'll see for myself how many of those Old Testament laws apply to the New Testament as well.
