This thread is certainly an important one considering that most Christians that have influenced the Western World and now most of the world have believed the Bible without question. These quotes in addition to the ones above give more reasons to look at the Bible and to question it's validity:

The Bible on Women:


Traditional Christianity and St. Paul:  I Timothy 2--that women were created second, sinned first, and should keep silence.


The Bible on polygamy:

Solomon had 700 official wives and 300 concubines....

The Holy Bible 1 Kings 11:1-3

The Bible on slavery:

Let all who are under the yoke of slavery regard their masters as worthy of all honor, so that the name of God and the teaching may not be defamed. Those who have believing masters must not be disrespectful on the ground that they are brethren; rather they must serve all the better since those who benefit by their service are believers and beloved. Teach and urge these duties. If any one teaches otherwise and does not agree with the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ and the teaching which accords with godliness, he is puffed up with conceit, he knows nothing; he has a morbid craving for controversy and for disputes about words, which produce envy, dissension, slander, base suspicions... 

-1 TIMOTHY 6:1-4 


Slaves, be obedient to those who are your earthly masters, with fear and trembling, in singleness of heart, as to Christ.... 

---EPHESIANS 6:5

As for your male and female slaves whom you may have: you may buy male and female slaves from among the nations that are round about you. You may also buy from among the strangers who sojourn with you and their families that are with you, who have been born in your land; and they may be your property. You may bequeath them to your sons after you, to inherit as a possession forever; you may make slaves of them, but over your brethren the people of Israel you shall not rule, one over another, with harshness. 

—leviticus 25:44—46
