“God is love.”

That’s what they tell you.

But here’s what their holy book actually says.

Verses your church will never quote.

Verses you’re told not to read too closely.

Verses that glorify infanticide, rape, sexual slavery, and mass murder. Not as sin, but as law. As divine will.

So go ahead.

Quote Jeremiah 29:11.

Frame Isaiah 40:31 above your bed.

Whisper Psalm 23 at every funeral.

But don’t you dare turn away when the same “God” commands child slaughter and calls it sacred.

Read. Every. Word.

Then ask yourself if this book is truly holy or if it’s just a long, loud echo of empire.
