If you don't explicitly renounce the Abrahamistic elements of biblical psychotic male exploitation and genocide, than you are a criminal-minded terrorist by ideology and may deserve to be given no quarter in civilized society. That book contains profound wickedness that the modern world rejects as anachronistic immorality. Generally, you're better sticking with the Christian bits in the new testament and treating the old testament as interesting poetic anecdotes complementing a more scientific understanding of the actual factual history that they would mythologize just so. Whether we're looking at Nimrud's society, the Midianites, the Assyrian Empire, or whatever other group, it's all describing wrongful atrocities and world destruction the likes of which would generate Nuremberg Trials if attempted ever again and caught.
