    B/c a main point of jesus was pointing out how those old laws are worthless.

    Christianity continued this tradition by obviating all those old laws like circumcision, no pork, misogyny, etc. That’s literally why christians don’t follow that stuff. It was rejected like thousands of years ago.

    The people who still worship the old testament are mostly jews and phony christians/cultists.

      The new testament is full of heinous shit too though. Jesus (who, don’t forget, is still the same vengeful, angry old testament God) condones rape, violence, and killing all throughout it, but says “love thy neighbor” once and everyone thinks he’s gentle as a lamb.

      “I come not to bring peace, but a sword” - Matthew 10:34

      Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

      Matthew 5:17
