It talks about incestuously raping your male slaves (but female slaves are fine if you follow some extra rules), about raping children, and about temple prostitution. None of those things concern homosexuality, particularly monogamous, consensual, not-of-the-same-household same-sex relationships.

The catholic church has twisted those things into something completely different than what they say. But we have those texts in their original languages and they are pretty darn clear. I’m amazed the church has gotten away with it for so long… but then they do have a policy of “what the church says is as good as scripture” so…

The mental gymnastics you people will go through to avoid facing reality... Sad.

Yes, you people. Ignorant Christian morons insisting that everyone lives according to a bronze age sex manual.

I’m an atheist. I’m not engaging in apologetics, I’m pointing out that Christians don’t know their own source material and their behavior and beliefs directly conflict with the texts they claim are the source of those beliefs.

Oh wow you got me! Good trap 🙄

I wasn’t trying to lay any traps. I thought my position was clear. Still, I really cant fault you for your anger.

That said, I find coming out swinging rarely works in ones favor. Check out Alex O’Connor on YouTube. He has lots of great material on how to deal with religious folks.
