Gods I hate that guy. Why so many people don't question why they should listen uncritically to the guy who hit his head on a rock and hallucinated Jesus and used the whole thing as a thinly veiled reason to tell people how to behave is just...
I am sorry but I think you are a woman and I don't permit you to preach or led me. Go ask your husband at home to explain it to you.
Now if you ask me I have a convoluted manifesto to write about the humanity of Jesus that proves that I can eat bacon. Let me send you 90 letters on the topic.
Ah well, half right. I definitely have a husband but am also not a woman so I think I am probably disqualified from discourse on other stupid rules that Paul completely made up.
You got any extra bacon to share though?
Bad news about that. He singled out the LGBT freaken twice for hell fire. Lived in a world where slaves could be executed on a whim and this is the group he decided to go after.
I would but Paul told me I would die if I didn't give him all my bacon.
Funny how there isn't actually a hell in the whole book. I mean it mentions a parable but Gehenna is just a real place on earth where they disposed of trash. No mention of burning eternally, just burning the once and then done. Not so bad really. You'd have to be one of those pagan bastards who believe in like Hades or Nifelheim to believe someone would be tortured eternally after they die if we just go with the main book and not all centuries of later fanfic add ons...
Also depending on whether or not all that "washing of feet" was as potentially euphemistic as the phrase is used in other places in the book Jesus probably banged a whole lot of dudes at his big party.
Paul as a pretty obvious sex repulsed asexual wasn't big on anybody banging anybody. He was like "If you really have to then like... Just your wife I guess but even then ew."
