"Appeal to tradition"? More like an appeal to Sacred Tradition, which is equal to Scripture according to most of Christianity.
(Bolding mine.)
Yeah, tradition. It might be sacred to you, but it is a tradition nevertheless and doesn't make it any more right to judge people on basis of what you thought you read in your outdated clay tablets and papyrus scrolls. Maybe it's time for an update and a reality check?
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
