    The big one is Matthew 22:36-40

    36 “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” 37 And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. 38 This is the great and first commandment. 39 And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. 40 On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.”

    There’s several more, but most Christians don’t actually read their book

      I am not seeing tolerance and acceptence there. Also, especially in Matthew, your neighbor was your ethnic group not humanity.

      Would have been kinda cool if Jesus had bothered to cite his sources. He is just quoting Rabbi Hillel here.
