This is a genuine question, because one of the reasons I left Christianity (I was raised Christian) was that I didn’t like how they hate gay people, are pro-life, etc., and overall are pretty hypocritical. But as I got older, I realized there are Catholics who are pro-choice, aren’t homophobic, and don’t have an issue with having sex before marriage, etc., and basically are not stereotypical religious people at all. But I have to ask—how do they justify this? I mean, it must be very confusing, because if the Bible does say being gay is a sin and you are not homophobic and are pro-LGBTQ+, then you are basically saying sinning is okay, which goes against their very religion. How about Catholics who swear? Basically, how do liberal Christians/Catholics justify their religion? Why be religious if you aren’t going to go all in?

Question, what are 'unclean meats' in the modern day of cooking?

Yes, I've seen videos of improperly prepared meats, they come in all forms, including Captain Brainworm eating half raw bear meat...

But now in modern times, we know how to fully and properly cook meat to avoid such parasites and other issues. So, what's the issue of updating the rules to reflect modern knowledge and cooking technology?

    Armadillos and Raccoons are native to the Americas There are a few more that seem ahistorical (Penguin, Opossum, Zebra, Panther, Wallaby). Perhaps this list is from a modern source?

    Very interesting. It would maybe be quicker to list the animals that are kosher
