Well, faith is a topic for another thread, so I won't go into that here.
As for whether or not the bible has contradictions, I don't know how much you've looked into them but it most certainly does.
For instance: The geneologies of Jesus though Joseph which are contained in the gospels of Matthew and Luke blatantly disagree. I don't know how that could be deciphered any differently. The date of Jesus birth is contradictory to historical records. All these and many more are contained on this site, and you can check them yourself in your own bible.
