    Nooo you’re just taking the Bible out of context! God actually wants people to kill the sons

    Then God said, “Take your son to the land of Moriah and kill your son there as a sacrifice for me. This must be Isaac, your only son, the one you love. Use him as a burnt offering on one of the mountains there. I will tell you which mountain.”

    Genesis 22:2

    /s but the Bible really does say this so also wtf lol

      That’s the really convenient thing about the Bible. It can easily be quoted to support any arguement.

      Including opposite sides of the same argument.

        It’s almost like the Bible is actually a collection of separate books written by a bunch of random people with wildly different ideas and perspectives over hundreds or thousands of years, and not a single coherent document written by a single omniscient, omnipotent, and omnipresent entity.
