Guy who wants you to love thy neighbor and turn the other cheek, but still thinks old testament genocide, torture, maiming and murder of women and children is still ok, would scare me too.

That’s not exactly right, the new testament is literally the abolishing of the old testament

  And yet it’s still part of the Christian Bible.

    It’s only there for archival purposes, you can actually buy just the new testament which is the important part in christianity

    That would be fine, except for the fact that it’s still constantly referred to by Christians.

  Agreed, that’s how it should be, but so many jackasses cling on to it to fuel their hate and prejudice over the history that can we really call it abolished?
