Giving kids weapons, let alone assault rifles is not normal, nor should be normalized. I mean, Biden is trying desperately to prohibit selling weapons to minors (with a good reason), so how better it is to expose assault rifles to kids?
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"
