    Chances the “christians” that campaign for anti abortion didn’t even finished reading their bible , or borderline illiterate, are extremely very high.

      Spot on. There is no room for interpretation in the Bible for bigotry, violence, or hatred towards anyone.

      The Bible does say “hate what is bad”, but never “hate WHO is bad”. In fact it says the opposite. The Bible literally says to “love your enemy” and “love your neighbour”. Anyone can be your neighbour.

      But like you said, most people who are vocal in such things either haven’t read the Bible or don’t understand the words they read. Nothing is preventing any single one of those people from practicing what they believe. Other people being “ungodly” doesn’t impact themselves in any way.

      Religion, unfortunately, is more often coopted as a tool for control than used for peace.

      Edit: I like that I’m being downvoted for agreeing with dimlo, who is being upvoted. Feels like being on Reddit again.
