Wassup with the down voting??
it turns out “nostupidquestion” for some people means “do not post stupid questions” instead of “there are no stupid questions”.
I up voted, because I still believe the second meaning is correct and people shouldn’t worry about posting questions here.
But I have to admit, I see absolutely no relation between the “if” part and the “would you” part of this question, which makes it really weird for me.
Also the assumption that people would “stick with the Bible” ignores the “dozens” of people in the world who are not Christians… They might be a bit upset about that.
It makes me wonder if OP is from somewhere where only religious texts are available in prison
I didn’t even know there were places like that… Let me guess, USA?
When a question tries to make you swallow a bullshit payload, if feels like a manipulative question rather than a stupid one.
This post implies that the obvious norms are:
If someone asks “are black people the only inferior ones, or is it the case for asian people too?” it’s not a stupid question, it’s not even a question, it’s an attack. And while there is more room for doubt in the question of the post, it is still loaded with religious propaganda which is shitty as fuck.
The question itself is fine but the presumption in the question that there exists no people with different faith or opinion, or that they are not worth asking rubbed me the wrong way.
Obvious troll is obvious

I did not vote, but the premise that I would read any religious text when I’m in jail is prepostorous.
