I mean, it doesn’t encourage it but it definitely does place the concept of such an unnatural act in the minds of people. Sure, it’s not only people from Christian countries who kill their children but do these stories serve a purpose? What is the point of having such ridiculous and barbaric writings in a book that is apparently a moral code by which we all should live?

if you're suggesting editing the bible, are you ok with taking out anything that doesn't condone homosexuality? ALL corporal punishment? what about the good things that are misconstrued, like 'eye for an eye'?
if people are misunderstanding the bible, that's one thing...but before you start trying to copy and paste the bible, consider the precedent and all of its consequences.

No, there is no reason to take these things out of the Bible. The Bible was divinely inspired so it should not be changed and altered beyond translation.
