Simply put the old testament is the pick and choose portion of the bible. Only slightly more complex is their ability to ignore similar sentiment in the new testament.
Yeah, the sequel retconned a bunch, but is actually more "love your neighbor" and way less violent than the original.
But the it has that weird Paul tangent that's just a collection of letters from a former Christian-hunter that changed sides where he gets really judgy about other Christians and he starts telling them how to act.
Started the process that made the only female apostle a whore. Only recently has that bit of self serving propaganda been debunked.
Edit: Found this. It isn't the same article I read several years ago but it examines the text of the gospels and even paul couldn't deny she was the first to spot jesus when he came out of his coma. https://uscatholic.org/articles/201603/who-framed-mary-magdalene/
