The Quran says this kind of stuff about creation:

Quran translations. Out of the ones I have read, I recommend Rashad Khalifa's (https://www.masjidtucson.org/quran/ReadQuran.php).

I am not sure how valid these translations are, but there seem to be a lot of incendiary passages in the Quran, how do we reconcile these view points with modern society.

I also understand that old testament (I am not christian) is just as bad but I was under assumption that the old testament was a carry over from Christianities Jewish roots, and the new testament supersedes it?

How so? It's literally prohibited in the texts.[1][2]

> according to interpretation of Islamic principles, I assume

It's literally in the Quran:

* https://quran.com/2/275

* https://quran.com/3/130

And the Hadiths:

* https://sunnah.com/riyadussalihin:1615

* https://sunnah.com/bulugh/7/62

This isn't a matter of interpretation.
