Your argument is predicated on the errors or downright possible lying of men. The bible could be wrong in 750/1000 places, but if it's right about something you can't ignore it because you don't like it.
You're also attempting to claim that a religion is bullshit because of the behaviors of men, again.(bolded part) You're part of the crowd that automatically rejects any faith-based reasoning under the assumption it makes you look intelligent. You only come off as a close-minded ignorant moron, however.
The sooner you realize there are more opportunities for many religions to have many things right, even while having a lot of it downright wrong, the better.
Religion doesn't automatically become entirely false because of some things some men wrote about it in the dark ages.

Religion is older than hundreds of years ago? I'm pretty sure you can use hundreds up to several thousands. Excuse me for using hundreds to allow for the many different religions that have been created over the span of human history. You know, because you seem to only be thinking of a few.
The second part depends on what they are right about and what they are wrong about. The fact you lump all the information of what they are or could be wrong about is hilarious. If they tell you 1 + 1 is equal to 2, it doesn't lend credibility to the fact that they tell you snakes talk, a woman had a virgin birth and some old guy split a sea in half.
You have no clue, as usual, what part of any crowd any person is from. This is mainly because you are blinded by your ignorance and hatred towards others that you jump on any stubborn opportunity to try and insult them. You fail to see that many religions are corrupted by men and have been proven to be so, you then try to suggest that one can only take it on faith that the rest isn't corrupted. When a part of a whole is proven to be inaccurate, you must criticize the rest of the work and not take it on faith that it is accurate because it says to. If the bible were a man and it's inaccuracies where the evidence against him for committing murder and the accurate information was his salvation, the bible would be convicted of murder. Christianity is not the only religion that would have their text convicted either.
The bolded part is about people being taught they are right and everyone else is incorrect. You can't have a religion without a man behind it pushing it. I can tell you that every religion is incorrect and by every religion's own admittance I would be correct about all of them (save for one possibility that one is correct). You can tell me that all of them can be correct based on the possibility that some of what they say may actually be true, however you would be incorrect about everyone of them (save for one possibility that one is correct). So yes, you being taught that your religion is correct and the others are incorrect is bullshit.
Like I said previously, if there is a God or Gods, it is nothing like what has been written in any of the religious texts I have read or skimmed.
