Good. We always have more to learn. Heck, that's the very job of the experts we always cite for information: learn more.
Both this and your other thread remind me very much of my initial reaction to first reading the Bible after I graduated high school. It's an understandable reaction, shared by many.
One realization that made me realize that there's actually far more than meets the eye is the fact that the Bible isn't actually a single book: it's a collection of Jewish and early Christian literature in what might be thought of as a "best of" compilation. And even within the individual books, there's question of additions, subtractions, and interpolations. As a result, I now regard each story separately from the others.
For example, the whole of Genesis Chapter 1, and then the first 3 (or 4, it's a bit unclear) verses of Chapter 2 are an entirely different story, likely from an entirely different author, than the story of Adam and Eve. The first Creation account is likely liturgical, while the Adam and Eve story strikes me as akin to a folktale. Furthermore, it's one of the deepest stories I've ever seen, with so many ways of looking at it that whatever the original storytellers may have had in mind is pretty irrelevant. Puberty, initiation, the agricultural revolution, awakening...
Plus, I've since read Jewish commentaries on the Torah, and thus have a greater appreciation of these stories, and their place in our cultural mythology.
As for the "horrible acts", those are common in mythology, and among worshiped Gods. My own King, Woden, is a bit of a prick himself. I still worship him, because I believe the Gods are, well, beyond good and evil. Morality is a human matter, not for the Gods. Volcanoes are highly destructive, capable of laying entire civilizations to complete ruin in a single day and night. But we still respect them; in any case, a volcanic eruption brings about death AND renewed life. Mt. St. Helens was greener than ever just a few years after it blew.
