He was talking about hating the worldly things, I believe. Not literally hating your family. Love your family, just don't make them an idol over the Trinity.


And that works if you know how to navigate the book switching from literal to figurative interpretation. But not everyone does, there are people in this very thread saying that that's the wrong approach.


People have been arguing about this for awhile now and I doubt we'll see eye to eye. But can you at least agree that the morality in the whole of the text shifts around A LOT?

I think that the "morality" that originates from the text is skewed by fundamentalists and general morons that make shite up.

Of course, I am honestly not your typical Christian, either. Never heard God or Jesus speak to me, am scared shitless when "tongues" are spoken (that's another topic), and there are other things. I do, however, feel like some things that have happened in my life recently, both good and bad, don't really have a worldly explanation that I know of.
