Fox News host Sean Hannity dedicated a segment of his Thursday show to deliver a message to Pope Leo XIV, suggesting he and others at the Vatican had totally lost sight of the true meaning of the bible and its teachings.

Did it ever occur to those morons that they might read the bible?
The issue here is that there’s a lot of room for interpretation. Slavers used the bible as defence for their actions.
The Bible is absolutely not up to interpretation regarding slavery. It is unambiguously pro-slavery.
It is? It may be clear I’m no theologian. Have you any verses off hand?
Edit: I went off and did some digging and it looks like you’re more or less spot on. There are verses in various parts of the old testament that just accept slavery as a thing.
Some new testament bits are clearly anti-slavery though.
Pete Hegseth, the bible-thumping secretary of war, used the fake Bible quote from Pulp Fiction at the Pentagon prayer group earlier this week.
Pete has a shit ton of “crusauder” (and totally not white-nationalist) tattoos. Christianity is a label/identity for people like him, not a lifestyle or personal moral code.
