This is for those Christians who don't believe in the literal truth of creation and the bible. But do believe and concierge them selves Christians.
How do you decide what to believe and what not to? To an atheist it looks like cherry picking what people wish were true. While ignoring the things you don't agree with. It seems to me that almost every Christian as a nearly completely different take on what all consider to absolute truth. Logically how can any truth be found when no one even agrees on the fundamentals?
Abimelech ruled Shechem as a Machiavellian tyrant guilty for much bloodshed (see chapters 8 and 9). However, the last few chapters of Judges (specifically, the stories of Samson, Micah, and Gibeah) highlight the violence and anarchy of decentralized rule.[35]

Well look, lets be honest, in a civilized society would you honestly keep the insanely dysfunctional and violent practices of a superstitious tribal folk who lived thousands of years ago?, no, you would not.
