The old testament is a story...

The whole thing is a story and shouldn't be taken seriously but here we are. People like to pick and choose which parts of the story are worth following. Old or new testament doesn't matter, believe in one then you have to believe in the other.

That's nonsense. For one, Jewish people exist, and for two you can just read it for the ideas

I've read lots of religious texts. Lots of mythology and creation myths too. It's not take it or leave it... They're ideas and stories. Ancient wisdom, universal aspects of the human experience, philosophy and manifestos for the perfect society

You can just read it, they're not killing people for interpreting it "wrong" anymore
