    In the old testament or new testament? Because Jesus was all about love and acceptance of your fellow humans.

    You can’t be a Christian and say that you hate people because you’re a Christian.

      Because Jesus was all about love and acceptance of your fellow humans.

      Except when he was rebuking a person for having leprosy, wouldn’t heal a child until her mother groveled at his feet and called herself a racial slur, specifically told people that he would be an instrument of strife and anger, and spoke in parables so that people would not understand and go to hell. Here is a fun fact, every single time Jesus is mentioned in Matthew with more than one other person in the scene someone has a sword. I get it, you cherry picked a bit of John and Luke but if you sit down and read the thing cover-to-cover he is totally different.

      Oh should we also mention Paul? You know the other guy in the NT. The man who gets credit for about 60% of the text. Tell me what did he say about what happens to gay people again or people who don’t give enough charity or who enjoy sex.
