Well, the New Testament has plenty of Jesus acting like a general dickhead, doing some pretty despicable things, and making it abundantly clear that he does not condemn any of the atrocities that God requested in the Old Testament.

Also, the status of the Old Testament very much depends on the denomination: it’s an “allegory” in Orthodox Christianity (read: when the book very clearly says that it stands for cruelty and genocide, it’s actually an elaborate metaphor for sunshine and rainbows), whereas Catholicism purportedly takes it quite seriously.

the tags calling Christianity media explicitly against hate is crazy work when the Bible, in the most literal way possible, has God demand several genocidal massacres that are then carried out without question, with Saul getting punished by God for not being thorough enough in the killing of all living things in Amalek
