Think about the Supreme court opinions that supported slavery, etc..... over time, now think about the crazy opinions that can be written over almost a thousand years. You can find in it almost every side of every argument about how to interpret the Torah, and some of those Rabbi's were even more wacky than some of the supreme court judges have been.... It is simply all of these discussions about what the torah means written down, and you can find opinions that contradict every other one within it.
Just in case you were interested in the actual "truth".
I'm not saying that Judaism isn't wacky, from an outside perspective, but your tack about the Talmud is not correct.
