I wonder how much of repugnicunt damage would have been mitigated if the Bible had just said ‘What happens between consenting adults is none of your business’.
None. Republicans don’t care. Jesus literally uprooted the old order in the temple and spared people left and right. He ushered in the New testament, yet the Republicans seem to yearn for the banished Old.
As a theistic Christian that spent most of my life in a very red state: It’s mainly cherrypicking to find license to hate what they find icky and a purity contest where whoever hates [insert this decade’s target here] the most is considered better.
It’s not that they don’t care about the Old Testament (despite all the ‘the Jewish part of the Bible’ jokes), it’s that they largely cannot contextualize culture before the 2nd fall of the Kingdom of Israel because it is so fuckdamn foreign to them that they just don’t even try to work through it.
I mean back then it was NORMAL to once a year take some goats and birds, and a cow if you were wealthy, and just go watch the high priest kill it with a knife. In public.
On these days, SO MANY animals were slaughtered that the Temple had to be designed with blood runnels and the stench would have been HORRIFIC!
AND PEOPLE GATHERED FOR IT AND BROUGHT THEIR CHILDREN!
See? So completely different from our culture that people who DON’T spend time learning about other cultures will be confused and probably disgusted.
And we all know how ‘open’ cuntservatives are to other cultures.
The guys who wrote the rules were caste based priests, it was the herders that pushed for the slave fucking. And the priests rely on the herders for free barbecue temple offerings, so it just became a circle of self-interest.
They want to have sex with Kamala so badly it hurts.
She isn’t going to sleep with you Republicans. Despite how much you want that.

“Sounds like a great idea in theory but how could I rape all these slaves whenever I want if we wrote that down?”
