    You abandoned Christianity because the Bible contains jokes?

    Where did they say that?..

      Much later in the Bible, an especially good King is described as being “so faithful that he roasts his meat in water”. It’s a Biblical author literally cracking a joke about a Biblical contradiction. These moments aren’t some shocking gotcha to any reader paying attention.

      This is why I left Christianity.
