Oh, absolutely. Proverbs is full of wisdom, for example. And in the NT there's some fishy stuff like Jesus cursing a fig tree for not bearing fruit for him even though it wasn't the season, or when he made a herd of pigs commit suicide. The reputation of OT=bad and NT=good isn't deserved. But to be fair, Jesus never said to stone the gays or that slavery was okay and 99% of the times people discuss bigotry in the Bible, they're talking about one of these two.

Every religion has its good and bad parts.
