right so just pick and choose when the bible says whatever you want or dont want it to.

It's what everyone does. Which doesn't make all interpretations equal, but anyone who tries to live according to that book is picking and choosing and interpreting in some way.

Literally can not read the first book without it contradicting itself. The two genesis accounts are incompatible. If that was human error who's to say what was and what wasn't.

Yes. Interpreting the word of God is literally the clergy's job lmao.

According to catholics god speaks through the pope (in certain circumstances). I don't know how much more direct you can get than god telling you to chill out.

the Pope doesn’t. he is directly receiving the word of God, so anything he says is from God himself. except yknow, none of that is true and everything the Pope does is politically strategic and meant to bring more folks into Catholicism.
