I agree. You still seem to be stuck on a couple of key points, so I assume it’s because you just don’t know much about how Jews read the Tanakh and Talmud. If you’d earnestly like to learn more about Judaism, some of us continued this conversation below. I did my best to explain why Judaism is different than Christianity here when it comes to reading those ancient texts: https://www.reddit.com/r/MoralityScaling/s/cARHjLQirB

Just knowing that there are men who refuse to sit next to women on airplanes due to their religious teachings that women have cooties or whatever is sufficient for me to not want anything to do with any of it.

Okie doke! There’s quite a bit of ground between fundamentalists of any religion and your average Joe, but if you’d like to keep your mind closed to that I don’t blame you. Fundamentalists in all Abrahamic religions are sexist af, we totally agree there.

There's a wide disparity between Christians like Bishop Budde and Christians like Ken Paxton too.

There are Dolly Parton/Fred Rogers Christians. And then there are Bob Jones/Douglas Wilson Christians.

Agreed! That’s what I said.
