Oh no!
Quote:Rainbow Pride crossing defaced with Bible verses in ‘unconscionable’ attack on LGBT+ community
The words “Genesis 9:13” appeared across one of the stripes of the rainbow, a reference to a Bible verse in which God created the rainbow as a symbol for Noah.
The verse is often used by anti-LGBT+ Christians to “reclaim ownership” of the rainbow, and to claim that queer people should not use it.
For example, in 2017, a conservative pastor quoted the verse in a bizarre sermon to his congregation, insisting that God “owns the copyright for the rainbow”.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Not to worry. God’ll have a good cry, then wash down a pint of chunky monkey ice cream with a bottle of Boone’s Farm. God will be fine.

I’m all about free speech, but there’s also a lot to be said in favour of shutting the fuck up.
