This is the version of Christianity that I think has a lot of merit.

But we've got the pope washing the feet of refugees, universalist protestant woman pastors doing gay marriages, dispensationalists giving the shirt off their back for jews in Israel... My reaction is like "these are not good ideas, this will not end well"...

So my reaction is "can we adapt the rules a little based on knowing this shit obviously doesn't work" - to which the reply is They're God's Rules, You Can't Change Them...

So I ask the question: You choose your ethnic group or you choose your faith?

I'm expecting the answer: "Okay, you're right, there are obviously SOME limits to faith"...

Instead, massive hell-thread, autistic rage I thought was only present in r/atheists, and seemingly some actual haters.
