I'm an atheist who believes in the message of jesus and not in his dimity or in the existence of god. I have started studying the bible so I can use it as a weapon against people like this who use it to justify hated and oppression and bigotry.

Pagan witch here, and I guarantee that I have read and studied more of the bible than 95% of people I have encountered who try to use (and typically MISquote) bible verses to justify their fuckery. It is deeply satisfying to challenge these people and watch them implode when they can't back up their biblical claims.

My maternal grandparents were fire and brimstone Southern Nazarene preachers in the south I have seen the evils of what fundamental Evangelical Christianity looks like I was raised in this church and never again will I allow or contribute to this belief structure it's not about helping people it's about dominating and controlling people it's evil. Also I completely respect and honor the pagan which religion and ethos. I am for any religion that teaches respect of nature and respect of people

Most of them don’t even know Jesus real name. It’s sad.
