"Let it be very clear, then, that when the church preaches social justice, equality, and human dignity; when the church defends those who suffer poverty or violence, this is not subversive nor is it Marxism. This is the authentic magisterium of the church.

The book of Nehemiah is literally just some guy rebuilding Jerusalem like it's the Sims.

Said guy also 'purified' the Jewish population through things like debt cancellation, assisting in the enforcement of the laws of Moses and enforcing the divorce of Jewish men from their non-Jewish wives.

God of the bible fucking sucks, man.
