@whitehouse-47.bsky.social Doug #Wilson is an idiot cuz he doesn't know the book he talks about all the time. #Jesus #Christ IS into #human #rights. That thing you know nothing about. Slave owners were evil stealing people's lives. Every human deserves access. Full access. We said so in 1948. #UDHR
