  • The Old Testament Law/Covenant still stands today and you have the choice to try to follow it if you want. I don’t see why you would want to because it’s “to be perfect you have to do all this all your life but TLDR you’ve already broken it so it’s impossible and you’re already condemned”. Jesus introduced a new covenant (aka testament, hence “New Testament”, also called “New Covenant” in some bibles) of grace and forgiveness, which is superior to the Old. We don’t ignore the Old as such, we just follow the New because it’s better.


  • Onan, which is why wanking is called onanism. To me it’s an odd story because it seems more like a social construct than a divine command. So I wonder if it’s been heavily abridged and he died for some other reason that’s been left out and they just said God did it because they wanted to reinforce that construct. If God really had a habit of dropping bodies just for spilling their seed, well, let’s just say there’d be several thousand reasons why I wouldn’t be typing this right now.
