You didn't read it either, by your own admission.
So why should anyone listen to your opinion about it?
You don't know what you're talking about.
There is plenty of information available to you, showing that everything in the Bible is true and correct.
If you choose to reject that information, I can't force you to tell the truth about it.
People are encouraged to read the Bible for themselves. I provided shortcuts to the crazier parts.
If you can read critically, you'll find this book repulsive, unless you are already a psychopath, in that case this book might be a good manual for you.
Problem is most Christians don't read the Bible. Or read the passages they like, passages that help them and ignore the rest.
By doing that they are ignoring God (which is probably correct anyway as I don't believe he exists).
My point is, this book is not a word of God, but it is a collective work of some sick, bronze age psychopaths that wrote rules to control their society as it emerged from stone age.

I agree completely. To be honest I have to go one step further. Bringing up children in bible belief is child abuse.
Denying a child knowledge because of your personal superstition if a crime.
Read the bible. Its the fastest way to Atheism. You find out what the book really says, and it's not pretty.
I read the bible after one of my friends was "born again" and he wanted to convert me. I read it, puked, and got him on the right track again.
The book is disgusting if you read it and not just take quotes from your pastor as "the truth".
Read the damn book before you make up your mind about if it is true or not
