If you are reading a story -- which the bible is, and the narrative such as in the gospels of Mathew, Mark, Luke, and John show such glaring and obvious contradiction, then it really cannot be digested as anything but a badly edited piece of fiction (bad fiction). If I bought a book by John Grisham, and it made no sense, and was contradicting it's own narrative, I would not continue reading it blindly. I would say to myself 'that was a very poorly written book, I do not think I am going to bother finishing this as it is not making any sense.'

Hope that clears up my earlier remark
