Oh fuck yeah, it must be a great pass time
Let's talk Jews and Degeneracy, shall we? Since the people who speak out about Jews tend to also speak out about Degeneracy...
Is smoking weed really degeneracy? I think it's as degenerate as drinking.
Well, I mean... there's an argument that it's the Jews that are condoning things like Transgenderism
(A commandment) Not to give occasion to the simple-minded to stumble on the road (Lev. 19:14) (this includes doing anything that will cause another to sin) (CCN76).
(A Commandment) Not to castrate the male of any species; neither a man, nor a domestic or wild beast, nor a fowl (Lev. 22:24) (CCN143).
Hey, I think everyone would be aight with thatb
Seems like that would be at odds with religious judaism.
Shit, I gotta head to bed. Seeya man.
(A Commandment) Not to commit sodomy with a male (Lev. 18:22) (CCN116).
Seems like these two groups should be getting along a lot better than they do is all I'm saying.
weed is fine in moderation
and it works wonders in medicinal scenarios
Easy solution to controlled substances.
All significant mind-altering substances are legal.
bingo
In a court of law, willful use of significant mind-altering substances, when proven, may take the place of 'Mens Rea'
I.E. if you can prove someone willingly got drugged out of their mind, you need not prove intent.
You did drugs, drove down the sidewalk, and killed people?
You think you weren't responsible for it?
We need a return to personal responsibility.
That's just my opinion on that.
I mean, I don't know that much about Christianity
but I know enough
(and the only relevant sects are Catholicism and Orthodoxy)
you know, like, it's not just sola fide, tradition plays a role too, which they were granted the permission to do
and also jesus made a new covenant with humanity so many of the old commands were made obsolete.
it's still really useful to understand judaism and the culture to get deeper in it but it's def. not essential
Or where Jesus made this new covenant with humanity that bypasses Jewish law?
literally all over the new testament
Then it should be easy to cite.
ill just link a page with all of it that i found
"The teachings of Jesus, the Council of Jerusalem, and other New Testament teachings (John 1:16-17, Acts 13:39, Romans 2:25-29, 8:1-4, 1 Corinthians 9:19-21, Galatians 2:15-16, Ephesians 2:15) make it clear that Christians are not required to follow the Old Testament rules about crimes and punishments, warfare, slavery, diet, circumcision, animal sacrifices, feast days, Sabbath observance, ritual cleanness, etc."
and I'm no biblical scholar, heck, I'm agnostic, and I bet there are certain rules that are still followed and some that aren't. But the best blanket statement is that Jesus released people from the old law
Well, I mean, aside from the fact that it's in the bible that no prophet should ever take away, nor add to the commandment... It's incredibly likely that a lot of this is poorly translated.
I mean, I can give examples of poor translations within the new testament.
And I don't just mean 'Decearing Egg Preparation' levels of poor translation.
