    Have you read the Old Testament? Genocide is pretty “hard” I’d say.

      I’m a formerly of the faith. I’ve read it all an uncountable amount of times.

      The New Testament is kinda of a “new era” for the tone of Christianity. The sacrifice of Jesus was the old ways being re-written and ushering in the new way. His death made it so people no longer had to make blood sacrifices and offerings in order to be forgiven. It really is a beautiful story.

      The absolute selfishness and barbarism endorsed by many modern-day “Christians” would make Jesus weep.

      Luckily, Jesus also promises that they will get what they are owed in the end.
