    Probably the line about it being illegal for a man to wear women’s clothing or a woman to wear the sword of a man, showing their binary view of sex and no separate understanding of gender.

    However, that was in the Torah/OT, so it makes sense Jews believe it, but I guess Christians are selective with which laws exactly were abolished.

    This is a funny meme though

        Your farm does intercropping? Straight to hell.

        Ate the fruit of a tree less than five years after you’ve planted it? Believe it or not, straight to hell.

        Ate meat anything other than well done? Hell. Clipped the edges of your beard? Hell.

        Raped another man’s woman slave? Bring a ram to a priest and it’s all fine.

        Leviticus is a wild ride.

      Most of those laws had a point though. Maybe the clothing one was because women didn’t have pads or tampons so wearing women’s clothing then having sex with her could lead to an infection.

      Same with the shrimp and pork and tattoo laws. But we’ve all learned why these laws existed and know more about the world. They aren’t laws for Christians, only unclean people of Abraham 4000 years ago.
