unlike the bible, actually has instructions on how to address contradictions within itself.

Jesus specifically states the old laws still apply.

Look the average Christian isn't going around trying to stone people any more than the average Christian is going around turning the other cheek, hating the sin while loving the sinner on any of the extra hipster anti-capitalist shit Jesus believed in. But neither is the average Muslim decaptating infidels any more than they are donating 10% of their yearly income to the poor.

Most of the world loves to say they're religious but they tend to just visit a few buildings, say a few platitudes and overall go about their lives same as everyone else.

And we happen to live in a society that believes your actions are immoral, not whatever book you happen to hold in your hand when you pray. Stoning people is bad regardless of your religion. Donating to the poor is good regardless of your religion. Your religion is irrelevant to us. That's what freedom of religion means.
