For the most part, they absolutely have not. There seems to be a pattern where the people who are the most obnoxiously vocal about religion are often the most ignorant when it comes to said religion.
Yeah /s for me as well. I don’t mean to endorse that message by any means. Just pointing out that the Bible has many passages endorsing things most people would find horrible and wrong, including genocide. Not saying there can’t be good messages inside too, but use your brain people. There are many mainline protestant churches that acknowledge the Bible was written by people and since have made such bold conclusions as, maybe stoning gay people to death is wrong, maybe a mixed cotton polyester weave doesn’t make an omnipotent deity mad, and maybe we shouldn’t destroy the earth we all live on.
The bible is just so full of fun things to quote. I have yet to hear one so called christian give a coherent answer as to why they can’t abide by Matthew 6:5-8.
Well I cite 1 Timothy 2:12.
“I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet.”
Picking out random bible verses to support your argument isn’t very compelling. Feel like all these fundies haven’t even read the thing.

But JEBUS
I mean …I love this argument…it makes my dumbass argument win usually…but not because I’m correct or handled something well…but Jesus agreed…
/s just in case
