    Funny how bible thumpers are always focusing on very specific portions of the bible to justify their hatred, but completely ignore the tons of other horrific bullshit that they are also guilty of.

        Nothing makes me roll my eyes harder than amoral Evangelicals telling me that I can’t have values and morals if I’m not religious.

        Listening to a hate-preacher denounce and proscribe their list of enemies is not self-improvement, but the conservative persecution fetish is the secret sauce of Christian Nationalism. Following a prescriptive list of rules is not morality either, but it’s much easier to control people by reducing gradient situations to black-and-white “abortion is murder” style slogans.
