    I can’t tell if you are just trying to trick me into reading the bible to find out about all the degenerate shit in there.

      Remember a few months ago when conservatives in America were banning books due to violence and sexual tones? Yeah someone submitted the bible and it unsurprising got banned due to numerous passages not just having such themes but glorifying them. If any book should not be around children due to sex and violence the bible should absolutely top that list. If you wanted to make a true to source material series on the Bible, getting it rated R would require serious cuts and revisions, and a totally accurate adaption would easily be NC-17

      There’s also a song that celebrates Israelite soldiers killing babies by bashing their heads against rocks.

      But you know, god told them to do it so clearly it was a good, moral thing to do.

      31 And the firstborn said unto the younger, Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth to come in unto us after the manner of all the earth:

      32 Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.

      33 And they made their father drink wine that night: and the firstborn went in, and lay with her father; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.

      34 And it came to pass on the morrow, that the firstborn said unto the younger, Behold, I lay yesternight with my father: let us make him drink wine this night also; and go thou in, and lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.

      35 And they made their father drink wine that night also: and the younger arose, and lay with him; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.

      36 Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their father.
