@BackFromTheDud @AlliFlowers @wolleysegap @lednabwm The name usually used now is "Hebrew Scriptures" to make that exact point: that it's not an 'improvement', it's a section somewhat arbitrarily taken from another faith and people.
Honestly, I think Christians should stop using it all together. It doesn't belong to us and we shouldn't have used it in the first place. It tries to make Judaism seem out of date or inferior, and it's a type of antisemitism that's gone on for too long.
@BackFromTheDud @AlliFlowers @wolleysegap @lednabwm They use whatever suits their personal agenda or self interest. It’s not about “Christianity” …………
@lednabwm Oh I *LOVE* that! @wolleysegap @BackFromTheDud

@wolleysegap History with some folk lore thrown in. @BackFromTheDud @lednabwm
@BackFromTheDud Exactly! Cause Jesse “fixed” the original. But evidently the dude left out a lot of the ugly, so today’s believers feel it necessary to supplement from the old book. You know, like the part about man not lying with man. I guess they don’t really believe he fixed it. @wolleysegap @lednabwm

Rejecting the voice shows #Australia is still in denial, its history of forgetting a festering wrong - https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/commentisfree/2023/oct/14/rejecting-the-voice-shows-australia-is-still-in-denial-its-history-of-forgetting-a-festering-wrong "The referendum became by proxy a vote on Indigenous peoples’ right to exist in our own land. Imagine – just try – how that feels today"
@wolleysegap But that’s Christianity in a nutshell. Abandon the Old Testament UNLESS it contains something you really like, and then use it to back up your feelings. @lednabwm
