To the evangelical, it’s unthinkable to even question the letter of the word, let alone criticise god. Different sects of Christianity are more tolerant or critical. To a lot of modern sects of Roman Catholicism, for instance, the old testament is more or less ignored as apocryphal.
Could be a sect difference but I was raised catholic, did the catechism, sunday school, confirmation etc. I don’t think we so much as read a single verse from the Old Testament, not even at mass.
"Let it be very clear, then, that when the church preaches social justice, equality, and human dignity; when the church defends those who suffer poverty or violence, this is not subversive nor is it Marxism. This is the authentic magisterium of the church.
