    Christianity is a bunch of horseshit altogether. Here are some choice examples:

    “Slaves, be subject to your masters with all reverence, not only to those who are good and equitable but also to those who are perverse.” (1 Peter 2:18)

    “If two men are fighting and the wife of one of them comes to rescue her husband from his assailant, and she reaches out and seizes him by his private parts, you shall cut off her hand. Show her no pity.” (Deuteronomy 25:11-1)

    “When a man sells his daughter as a slave, she will not be freed at the end of six years as the men are. If she does not please the man who bought her, he may allow her to be bought back again.” (Exodus 21: 7-8)

    “I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet.” (1 Timothy 2:12)

    “O daughter Babylon, you devastator! Happy shall they be who pay you back what you have done to us! Happy shall they be who take your little ones and dash them against the rock!”(Psalm 137:8–9)

    And on and on it goes

      As a Christian I wish I could upvote this 1000 times. The Bible says your actions are not what get you into heaven but will prove to others where your aligence lies.

        The Bible also condones slavery, rape, incest, misogyny, torture, and genocide, so who cares what it says.

        Also, who cares what others think of you in this blip of an existence if eternal peace awaits everyone who accepts the deity regardless of how evil ones actions may be.

        The Bible is a bunch of horseshit nonsense.

        OT Christians (I know, but run with it), see that God blesses his chosen. The more they’re blessed, the obvious God’s favor is.

        Abraham, David, Solomon. All favored and ended up rich.
