    the tags calling Christianity media explicitly against hate is crazy work when the Bible, in the most literal way possible, has God demand several genocidal massacres that are then carried out without question, with Saul getting punished by God for not being thorough enough in the killing of all living things in Amalek

      Christianity media is very contradictory, at least if taken literally. The Gospels have a lot messages encouraging empathy to people regardless of their faith and social status, and ideas one could call “leftist”

      Iirc that’s the old testament, which is part of the Torah

      The New testament is all about why you should love each other and not discriminate, and the old testament is included as a reference since Christianity evolved out of Judaism?
