Yes, I eventually managed to learn how to do most stuff without the terminal, but almost all "How to do Whatever on Linux" tutorials immediately jump into it.

I know the terminal is more distro-agnostic, but even the distro-specific tutorials do it.

Unfortunately I'm a software developer...

I can use a CLI, but I'd rather not.

I want to like Linux and leave Windows, but when I say that I don't want to be forced to use CLI/terminal because I don't live in the 1970s, people get angry at me.

I missed the context of banning books?

The description of the first primitive church in Jerusalem is very close to an ideal anarchist commune.

Not just mine, AFAIK it's the most common one.

Just an example of not needing to be religious to create stupid justifications to kill people.

A single generation of incest is usually not enough to cause bad effects, and anyway it's an at least 3000 years old story, that's what people "knew" at the time.

And this behavior is not exclusive to "religious" people, the nominally atheist USSR did very similar.

He fulfilled the law, and did not have slaves.

The example of His own actions is to read the law with the perspective of protecting the weak, the "lesser", the vulnerable.

I did study theology, but I certainly need a refresher.

Yes, the servitude can be considered a form of slavery, but I think it can be useful to distinguish as it's quite different from the more modern chattel slavery.

And I don't think it's valid today, these laws in the Bible were written in and for a specific context of time and place, and the commandments of love supersede it.

Until 300 years ago when slavery was considered OK, the biblical law on it would still be VERY progressive.

I don't and can't disagree with what you said. The moment the powerful started using the Bible its message was twisted into supporting all sorts of evil, like those you mentioned.
But I believe the message of Jesus is that it is meant to be read from the perspective of protecting, helping, and freeing the weak, the "lesser", the vulnerable.
And it was others reading it this way that made the ideas that became human rights to spread in the Western World.

That doesn't hurt free will? Someone receiving a "revelation" is still free to act in it as they will; Christian theology also recognizes Natural/General Revelation in which anyone can find God's will just by observing the natural world and/or society. Apostle Paul called the Greek philosophers "prophets", and I personally think the title also applies to modern scientists.
