    I mean there is shit like Deuternonom 23, 1

    “No one whose testicles are crushed or whose male organ is cut off shall enter the assembly of the Lord."

    Maybe just don’t give a shit about some non-sensical book some dudes in the desert made up.

      Didn’t Jesus say he was the new covenant therefore ignore all the ancient laws and follow Jesus? Jesus himself is unworthy if you follow the Old Testament

        Matthew 5, 18:

        For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.

        In short: Nope.

          In practice, Christians don’t think this means all old testament laws remain in force literally. That’s a contradiction when they want to use literalism elsewhere, but that’s not most Christians.
