I'm receiving several engagements per day from sexual content providers, so I'm creating a block list.

I have made the same point about the Old Testament among my many responses.

Is anyone called Torah-phobic for pointing that out?

There is no shortage of xenophobes and bigots, that's certainly true.

But it's still important to criticize harmful ideologies.

If some text admonishes us to stone people to death (e.g. Old Testament), it's not bigoted to speak up against it.

That's why it's so important to distinguish between the people and the doctrines.

According to your definition, condemning the barbarism of Shariah (stoning, throwing homosexuals off cliffs, amputation of hands, e.g.) is not Islamophobic?

I was addressing the term "Islamophobia", so Islamic scriptures were relevant.

Yes, there are other barbaric scriptures, too, especially the Old Testament and Torah.

I'm sure we both still ignore other barbaric scriptures and texts.

What more rights do trans people have in Iran?

What's the false premise?

Let me make clear:

I don't hold the Bible against Christians, nor the Torah against Jews, nor the Quran or Sunnah against Muslims.

They are ancient, obsolete texts, that's all.

People are awesome and kind and fun and cool. Obsolete texts are obsolete.

Do we agree?

Hello Wizard!

What does Islam say about drinking alcohol?

I know!

It's old Testament bullshit.

The quran borrows a lot from the old Testament, and jesus is a prophet in Islam.

I reject all the Ancient bullshit, but embrace people.

It isn't hard, but I'm getting lots of shit from people who can't make the distinction

Christians and Muslims mostly treat each other well, I think. I treat them irrespective of their versions of beliefs in scripture.

I have issues with their scriptures, not with the people

Muslim patients get food without pork, but we don't have halal food for them.
Their families provide halal food when possible.

"Trans" is a new fad.
We'll get to them in a decade or two, but I can't see what different treatment they would need.

All people are treated with respect and patience.

As a historical record, it's useful and interesting.

As a guide for our contemporary life, I absolutely reject it
(Though individual passages still are useful and sweet)

You're exhibiting black/white thinking.

I don't hold nazi views on trans people.
You just need me to, so you can keep your black/white simplistic world view

Challenge for you:

How does Christians justify ignoring Old Testament bullshit?

No.

People have immense flexibility to interpret and to abandon the most ridiculous of ancient texts.

I have no patience for bigotry against people.

But ridicule of ancient superstitions is perfectly fine

You and I both have our faces on here.

I also have my full name on here.

I dont know about you, but for me to use my face and full name, keeps me accountable.

Cowards who attack from anonymity deserve no respect, in my opinion.

I'm not Hitler.
I'm Kamfjord.

If facts matter at all 🤷‍♂️
