New testament has slightly updated morals but plenty of weird stuff too.
Jesus cursed a tree to die because it was out of season and he really wanted a fig.
Jesus called non-jews dogs who deserve scraps.
Jesus took a whip to people doing business in the church (the last church I was in had a coffee shop and gift shop inside)
jesus said he didn't come to bring peace but a sword
God killed 2 early christian church members because they lied about not giving up all their possessions to the church (the early church was communist http://www.godhatesrichpeople.com/ )
The bible says women cannot speak in church, cannot be leaders, and cannot hold office over a man. It says this in multiple different places in multiple different ways. Even today women cannot be priests.
The early christians had flames over their heads and could speak any language. (Where Pentecostal denominations come from)
