I am starting to wonder if Atheists here have even bothered to read the whole bible for the full context.
Ok, how to sum it up. See the passage you took? Yeah that is jewish laws. Only cherry picked thing that is kind of part of the new testament is the ten commandments, thats it.
Here, allow me to show you
Jeremiah 31:31-34
“The days are coming,” declares the Lord,
“when I will make a new covenant
with the people of Israel
and with the people of Judah.
32 It will not be like the covenant
I made with their ancestors
when I took them by the hand
to lead them out of Egypt,
because they broke my covenant,
though I was a husband to[a] them,[b]”
declares the Lord.
33 “This is the covenant I will make with the people of Israel
after that time,” declares the Lord.
“I will put my law in their minds
and write it on their hearts.
I will be their God,
and they will be my people.
34 No longer will they teach their neighbor,
or say to one another, ‘Know the Lord,’
because they will all know me,
from the least of them to the greatest,”
declares the Lord.
“For I will forgive their wickedness
and will remember their sins no more.”
Romans 7:4-6
4 So, my dear brothers and sisters, this is the point: You died to the power of the law when you died with Christ. And now you are united with the one who was raised from the dead. As a result, we can produce a harvest of good deeds for God. 5 When we were controlled by our old nature,[b] sinful desires were at work within us, and the law aroused these evil desires that produced a harvest of sinful deeds, resulting in death. 6 But now we have been released from the law, for we died to it and are no longer captive to its power. Now we can serve God, not in the old way of obeying the letter of the law, but in the new way of living in the Spirit.
So are you guys getting it yet? Christian practice. Aka Jewish laws is not cannon unless you become a jew. I really hate how i must explain this to every fedora so called intellect who claim to be intelligent but know jack about how the rules work. What you quoted was Leviticus 19:33-34 which is aka jewish laws. somewhere between exoddus to whatever the fifth book of bible is called by rules and laws is by default not really valid in christian practice, so to sum it up. Screw them. Criticize it all you like but atleast be concistent with your criticism, rewarding ignorance i absolutely think should be something a supposed intellect like an atheist would be aware of. But i guess being a scholar is too much work for you
