How can there be such a thing as "too much truthiness(whatever that means)? Truth is the one thing above all others man has strived for the most in life, yet you question it when it's right under your nose?

Truthiness?
You mean like talking snakes and bushes, global floods, people living in whales, a six day flat earth, humans created magically out of dirt, and women from ribs?

The truth is out there, but it often gets obscured by our modern obssession with pinning down "facts". Maybe every other chapter or so they could sprinkle in, "Well, you get the gist anyway." That would make the truthiness factor more obvious.

I don't think so. The bible was translated so many times by people who didn't speak the language, pair that with interpretative license from each translator and what do you have? You have a pretty much inaccurate account of history.

Billions of people share the belief that the creator of the universe wrote (or dictated) one of the many holy books. Unfortunately, there are many books that claim divine authorship, and they make incompatible claims to divine authorship; and they make incompatible claims as to how we MUST live. Competing religious doctrines have shattered our world into separate moral communities, and these divisions have become a continual course of human conflict.
In response, many sensible people advocate something called ‘religious tolerance’. While religious tolerance is surely better than religious war, tolerance is not without its problems. Out fear of provoking religious hatred has rendered us unwilling to criticize ideas that are maladaptive. It has obliged us to lie to ourselves—repeatedly and at the highest levels of discourse—about the compatibility of religion and scientific rationality. Our competing religious certainties are impeding the emergence of a viable global civilization. Religious faith—faith that there is a God who cares what His name is called, faith that Jesus is coming back to earth—is on the wrong side of an increasing war of ideas—“Letter to a Christian Nation” by Sam Harris

Truth is in the eye of the perciever. The Bible seeks to reveal certain truths to people where it might not normally occur. Too much truth? Naw.
