    You know, if they actually followed the moral teachings laid out in the Bible - the spirit, not the letter - I’d almost be okay with this. The problem is that the vast majority of these self-proclaimed Christians don’t. Not even remotely close.

      They are very much Christians and their book is fucked, even if you try to find a moral in it. What’s the moral of a guy being fucked with by his god and being told to murder his own child? Or the moral of a man offering his daughters to a bunch of rapists, or the moral of a bunch of kids getting killed by a bear cause they made fun of a guy being bald? It’s a weird ass book through and through

      I just assumed the God they were always talking about was money. You’re telling me it’s something else?

      Have you read the Bible? It’s pretty horrific all the way through. Any good is pretty well overshadowed. The spirit and the letter are awful.

      Turn the other cheek, but also buy your slaves from the heathen that surround you and feel free to beat them with a rod as long as they don’t die immediately.

      the spirit, not the letter

      Idk, man. I could totally go for some of that liturgically mandated Jesus Style Socialism right about now.
