And that is essentially the veiled point I was trying to make. The fact that each individual sect of Christianity gets to pick and choose which parts of "God's law" they want to enforce and obey is really where the foundation of their argument falls to pieces.

It's fine to have a tangible source of morality like the Bible, but if you're going to cite it as a reason for primacy, oppression, and segregation then you should have to consider the totality of that source.

Queers are harmful and unequal, but ham & lobster is delicious, tattoos are badass, and capitalism and usury are the crux of Western society/economy.
