11. To say this is to say that the Pope, Vicar of Christ, is opposed to the teachings of Jesus Christ.

Only fake Christians cite 2 verses out of the 859 verses of Leviticus, without bothering to "live by" the rest of Levitican laws.

Judging is strictly forbidden by Jesus.

As for women, Jesus was the biggest damn feminist in the entire Bible. All four Gospel writers specifically cite Jesus rejecting the cultural norms and breaking rabbinic laws of his day by teaching and talking to women, allowing all of them, including those the Jews considered "unclean," to touch him. He treated women with respect. He begins in the Sermon on the Mount (his first sermon) by telling men, "Stop looking at her like that." Jesus said, "You have heard it was said, 'You shall not commit adultery,' But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart." Jesus had at least three to four women disciples -- Mary (called Magdalene), Joanna, wife of Herod's household manager, Susanna -- traveling with him and the 12 'chosen' men. Women were with Jesus when he died, when his male disciples were not; women were the first to see his empty tomb; women were the first he showed himself to after his resurrection.

Jesus repeatedly says these words: "You have heard it was said... But I tell you..." '

The longest conversation recorded in the entire Bible is between Jesus and the Samaritan woman at the well.

No one in the Bible, from Noah to Abraham to Moses to King David to Jesus Himself, never ever even mentions abortion. Not even once.
