I thought the bible was mostly about explaining things like who to kill in wars and how to treat your slaves.

You're right about Touhou innocence being meant to go deeper than the surface, but part of why it gets as sexualized as it does (I think) has to do with the stories from which some of the characters hail. Fairies and mikos may be innocent and neutral, but to name one example The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter is the exact opposite. The driving force behind the middle of that story was Kaguya's otherworldly beauty and sexual irresistibly, and that gets attached to all the Lunarians just because. Vampires and witches also come with a folklore that harbors overt sexual themes, and they're attached to notions of fertility, death and rebirth, perpetual beauty and youth, etc.

That stuff (and that's just for starters) isn't easy to decant. It doesn't just fall by the wayside when you try to downplay it or even ignore it completely.
