I spent decades taking it seriously. The occasional bit with ‘‘yeah don’t be an asshole’’ isn’t worth anything next to the pro slavery, pro genocide, hateful parts. Even Jesus called Samaritans dogs compared to so called pure blooded Jews, none of this is morally OK when you hold it accountable to itself as a text.









he said he wouldn’t teach or accept Samaritan disciples because that would be like feeding the dogs before feeding the children. He wasn’t being nice.
