A former writer for a conservative political advocacy group’s website has pleaded guilty to making threats against the Human Rights Campaign (HRC).

In a press release Wednesday, the Justice Department said that 34-year-old Adam Michael Nettina of West Friendship, Maryland, pleaded guilty in a U.S. District Court in Baltimore to a federal crime for using a telephone to threaten the Washington, D.C.-based LGBTQ+ advocacy group.

Wasn't Jesus pretty against murder?

According to the official Christian records, while Jesus was being arrested, one of his followers chopped off one of the bad guys' ears with a sword. Jesus healed the ear before proceeding with being arrested. (Luke 22:49-51)

Even the Old Testament was quite explicit on the not murdering people.

I would say he was a bit back and forth. Like don't murder people, you can stone these people. And genocide these people. Except save the women for sex. Also, he's gonna commit genocide and flood the earth.

But also, this rule says don't murder people.

Don't murder people unless I tell you to.

I think Duncan Trussell made a video about this... Or some other Bible person. He dubbed a cartoon and it's some guy proclaiming he's gay lol.
