Attempting to use the bible as a source for good just doesn’t work because they are always exceptions and hateful rhetoric in other bible chapters they can point to.
Or they can wholesale just make shit up like all the evangelical rapture crap. Hell, look at even the constitution and how that’s been stretched and colored for all of the anti-progressive rhetoric in the past.
Even when I was a religious child, I still found contradictions in the bible. But, as you know, when you were a young naive child like everyone of us and found something odd, we’re told to ignore it and just don’t think about it.

Gotta use what Jesus said, not the “bible”.
