@redenigma to be fair, christianity is meant to be like most religions, in that it has a base "don't be a douche" rule. When people get caught in the weeds of old testament we end up with that type of stuff. Even among bible scholars there is debate with questionable content in the new testament. The safest be for Christians is to follow Christ (as meant to do) and not so much other sources. The hate people site is not based on anything Jesus said or instructed people to do
@MrMalignance my interpretation is that when Jesus said he brought the new covenant, which supersedes the old, that means the laws of the old testament are no longer in effect... so dragging out the bits of old testament that wallow in unkindness is not following Christ.
i also pretty much ignore ANYTHING from the misogynists Paul & Timothy
@redenigma yes, exactly. I agree 100 percent. As for Paul and Timothy, they are father and son, so the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Some bible scholars actually argue about the possibility of Paul being an antichrist
@MrMalignance well, THAT would explain a lot of his more interesting statements/decrees...
