I see this alot when I see people making arguments against the bible.Now, do you read the full chapter to get an understanding of the verse you cherry-picked, or you truly dont care and are just ranting?

The contradictions you speaking of are misunderstandings. Have you put effort to understand those misunderstandings?

You can't "pick and choose." Jesus said, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by "EVERY" word which proceedeth out of the mouth of God. When you compare scripture with scripture, you will find that there are no contradictions or errors in the bible, on God's divine, inspired truth.

Do not just read the whole books in the bible, but understand it. The bible is composed of many books written by the prophets and apostles of Christ which the words therein were dictated by God to their hearts to let mankind know that there is God who created us. So we should give respect to God and obey him as well as obey his teachings to make us good citizens.
The bible was written mostly on parables. Interpret the verses not on its literal meaning . Most of it are also examples which are hard to understand and a bad man could never understand it if God will not allow it to be understood,no matter what degree or collegiate course you have taken.If you hve doubt to God , he will not let you understand the bible.
It is not like the books in schools that the contents are continuously taught from page to page. In the bible, the continuation can be found in other pages and other verses of those who wrote it.

The bible is replete with interpolations, contradictions, and factual error. Not to mention impossible lies ( Noah's ark, Jonah in the belly of a whale etc.)

Okay, explain how I am taking "talking donkeys" out of context. Or this "global flood" for which there is zero evidence.

You mean like Christians do all the time. Like when talking about say homosexuality.
