And they’ll keep on circumcising their sons while unironically screaming about anyone who respects trans rights being out to surgically mutilate all children. What a world.

That seems somewhat antisemitic, if you ask me. Not all jews are anti-trans.
They didn't say anything about jews being anti-trans.
Didn't even say anything about Jews. Most people I've meant who are pro circumcision and follow an Abrahamic god are not Jewish.
But Americans that circumcise(which I did not know happened), don't do it for religious reasons. And Muslims don't believe in the story depicted, so this by elimination only applies to Jews.
Ah yes! The famous three branches of abrahamic faith: Judaism, Islam, and America.
Not all circumcised are Jews. Most aren’t in fact.
In the US circumcision was the norm for the longest time. Thank John Harvey Kellogg for that. I don't think it's recommended anymore.
It's probably still a lot more uncommon than being uncircumcised because "well I guess it should look like mine or most of the others"
Aesthetic and looking like the father is a big reason women still support doing so.
How would women feel if men said the same thing about cutting theirs up for aesthetic reasons?
But the only religion that holds to this story of Abraham, and circumsises is Judaism.
Muslims reject the Torah, or the Old Testament, and Christians are under no obligation to circumcise so this only applies to Jews.
And Americans do it ~~because they are weird~~ for cultural reasons.
Dude. Wipe your computer screen clean, open your eyes, and notice the text in the meme about 4 billion people who think nothing is wrong with this: Christians are invoked directly in the post.
As a Jewish person the vast majority of religious Jews are extremely transphobic and also incredibly homophobic. So no its acturally not inaccurate at all, most Rabbis will genuenly complain about Trans people mutalating and indoctrinating people while doing that themselves.
I'm just wondering what kind of parents name their kid Abraham. Like "We're gonna name him after that guy. Yes, that one."
And then he grows up and frees the slaves. Go figure.
According to them:
Mutilating your genitals for sky daddy in your head- good and normal
Surgery to be your true self - Deranged
I hate this hell world.
Job: "Thanks for giving me back everything you took from me in that bet with Satan, but can you please bring my dead family back to life?"
God: "We haven't established that lore yet."
God: I replaced them, what's your problem?
I constantly reference Job for exactly that logic. Early Christianity saw family as property first.
Well hey, when your invisible friend says kill, you kill.
Whats even funnier is that in the original (Jewish interoperation) god does this as a joke. Yes god literally makes a bet with angels over if he'll acturally go through with it. Then said angels go down to earth to attempt to sway him because they wanted to win the bet.
How exactly is the Jewish interpretation different from the Christian one? I thought the Christian Old Testament was identical to the Torah. I ask as someone who was raised Methodist.
I wouldn't trust anyone who misspelled interpretation twice.
interpenetration
My keyboard app doesn't have working spellcheck. Sorry that every other Android keyboard is spyware.
Even as a child i used to hear this story and go “that’s fucked up. Why would god ask him to do that? What a psycho. And why would Abraham agree to do it?! If god is asking you to murder your own kid, maybe that god is shit”
Why would a loving god torture people for eternity? I guess we'll never know.
Why? Have you not played The Sims?
Yeah but I don't claim to love my sims.
Fun fact: Abraham goes up the mountain with his son but comes down alone, suggesting that in the original text he went through with the child sacrifice.
