I went back into the 'holy text', I seen issues!
Cause, meet effect.
You read it, so you see issues. [:D]
It's not a finished work in its present condition. Batteries needed. Some assembly required.
Or, rather, disassembly, cleaning and reassembly. Bear in mind that few other texts have gone through so many revisions by so many people over so much time. If you want to pay attention to it, you'll either have to eyeball it or do a lot of work to sort out what's what. I figure, since the churches have pretty much given up on making a pass at the latter, it's a fair bit of work.

Now, I have had some say 'we are no longer under the Law or OT. This is just a scapegoat for them to try to get around all the SILLY stuff in the Law.
The local priest was, eventually, in perfect agreement on this. I now have a dinner invitation to help debug the rest for him.

He hasn’t the slightest objection to the cruelties of the Old Testament.
Ehrm... go back. Retry. His objection isn't to the message, but to (a) what we've done with it, and (b) what we keep doing to it.
"Judaism. You're doing it wrong." - Jesus (paraphrased)
quote:
There is WAY more than this on this topic, but that should PROVE just somewhat how SILLY this book is, and how we CANNOT LIVE BY IT'S STANDARDS (how many people would be alive today if we Killed all these people).
Nothing silly about it. Something silly about us. Which it tries to comment on, but we're too silly to listen. [:D]
IWYW,
— Aswad.
