minus-squarePowderhorn ( Powderhorn@beehaw.org ) linkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·6 months agoI’m an atheist. I only read the bible cover to cover once, years ago, to figure out what all the hubbub was about, so I may be a bit rusty. I do seem to recall the bit about “love thy neighbour.” I like the Jesus guy. Almost everyone else sucks.

All other wives, daughters, and twinks are fair game. •Thou shall not kill. The military and police can do that. •Thou shall not steal. I’m just taking what’s rightfully mine. Etc. The commandments weren’t exactly a legal document. Loopholes everywhere.
