Exhibit A of why the bible is unnecessary. Your younger brother could have arrived (and probably -did- arrive) at his bigotry (regarding teh gayz, teh jewz, and teh muslimz) in a much less roundabout way. Even though it is -actually in the bible- your brother believed that it was not - again, making the bible unnecessary in reaching the finishing line of said bigotry. I think you should have nailed your younger brother to the wall, rather than trying to pussyfoot around what is or is not in the bible. It's not as though the contents actually matter to him, he has his own fairy tales to spin...hilariously, about fairy tales.
I wasn't trying to pussyfoot. I was not being sensitive about his beliefs. I tried to press him as hard as I could on a lot of this stuff. I think I'm pretty amateur at arguing is the problem. It didn't seem to me like he was actually against gay people though. I think he just thinks they're all social justice warriors which I should have pressed him on that they're not. I did try though. I told him about how there is no anti discrimination laws and if he asks one of my friends who is transgender (who he has talked to) about transgender rights, she and I will tell him that they have no rights and are actually in danger in our country.

Those 'social justice' warrior's do not speak for all of feminism. So you should through feminism under boss for some bad apples.
Absolutely true. I think it's good to recognize the inconsistencies of the use of feminism.
