Source (Bluesky) TranscriptFFRF: Here’s how pliable bible-based “morality” is: she swerved right past “thou shalt not kill” and found a verse to justify killing someone for defying authority. If your ethics can be weaponized that easily, it’s not morality. Megan Basham: To those invoking Christianity in this current controversy over the shooting in Minnesota, it is important to remember that our God is a God of order. And he requires submission to all legal authorities. Romans 13: "For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong." Biblically, what Renée Good was doing was actually a sin. She was breaking the law. She was defying legal authority that was justly being carried out. I'm sad about what happened to her. It's tragic. But as a Christian, I can reflect that this is why Romans 13 wisely tells us to obey the authorities. It is for our safety and good. |

Romans 13 is a WHOLE BOOK of the Bible. And does she know that Christianity itself was illegal for 300+ years? What???? |

What's the problem? You don't like it when someone interprets your holy text differently than you? But they have just as much evidence as you do. Maybe death cults should be illegal, if we value life. Your bullshit is intolerable. |

interpreting the bible like this is like me word search for "flat" on a scientific paper on the earth's shape and using it to "prove" the flat earth theory |

But that's exactly what you also do with the bible. Every believer makes up their own interpretation because it makes no goddam sense. You're a selfish coward, a hypocrite, and a fucking murderer. Grow up. |

How long is it going to be until somebody cites Deuteronomy chapter 13 :12-18 to justify a genocide? |

yeah that verse is because no amount of horribleness is supposed to be terror for christians because they are all giddy that they will go to heaven and not care about how much torture they or their families endure on earth. |
