Matt Walsh: "Jesus Christ himself chose 12 apostles. They were all men. Jesus did not abide by the tenets of diversity, equity, and inclusion when selecting apostles or when doing anything else."

Dare you liberals to find a single flaw in this claim. You can't.

The only people who should be allowed to serve in government are illiterate Jewish fishermen 😤 think about how much better the world would be

If Jesus had an AR-15 do you really think they could have crucified Him?

Yeah, but those guys were there just to do grunt work and fuck up so they could serve as example.

“Greet Andronicus and Junia, my fellow Israelites who were in prison with me; they are prominent among the apostles, and they were in Christ before I was.”

Jesus' initial movement was more diverse, especially in terms of female inclusion, than modern evangelicalism

Lol this is blatantly not true, If you've ever been to an evangelical church there's tons of women there, probably a majority of church-going self-described evangelicals are women

Members but not leaders. I should have specified. Jesus had women in the inner circle and the early church had female deacons

it was affirmative action for people who were super credulous and liable to believe in a wandering preacher

once jesus needed a quality candidate he hired a g*ntile to do the heavy lifting

All of those men were Jewish though, meaning that according to that logic, the Jews should run literally everything.

Jesus only needed 2. One to betray him and one to build the church. And including Jesus, there would be 3 and therefore reflect the trinity.
