(30,179 posts)he wasnt speaking literally. What hes saying, if you look at the entire passage, is not to throw the baby out with the bath water. Sorry, thats another metaphor and you seem metaphorically-challenged. Let me rephrase: when you catch yourself doing something shitty, stop doing the shitty thing, but keep the good parts of yourself.
Also a bogus argument because no one takes this passage literally, not even biblical literalists and flat earthers. So, what are you babbling about? Meanwhile, he expressly spoke in plain terms about treating the least among us as if they were treating him. Thats the false Christian part, ignoring Jesus message of acceptance and love in favor of their equally stupid interpretations of the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament) to justify their cruelty.
Im sorry you seem to have been hurt by Christianity. And also, Im an atheist who doesnt think we need to throw the baby out with the bath water because some adherents got the core message wrong.
