Some (but not very much) of the bullshit they ramble on about is in there, but it's not in the important part.

All of the fire and brimstone, Sodom & Gomorrah, "I am a vengeful god" shit is in the Old Testament. Sure, the Old Testament is important (it's like half of the book, after all), but it's important as backstory. It's literally just the Torah in a different order, included because Christianity started as a breakaway sect of Judaism.

The part that actually pertains directly to Christianity starts with a list of "begats," some very confused shepherds, and a barn baby getting presents. The New Testament is mostly about helping others and being tolerant; and the star of the show, Jesus, literally goes around telling people that they can get into heaven just by being nice and helping the needy. He gets angry exactly once, and goes on a table-flipping rampage because someone else was taking advantage of poor pilgrims. It's the kind of thing that a lot of the Christian Right would call "hippie bullshit," but it's also the entire point of their religion.
