      The Qur’an is pretty damn fair on alcohol too, saying there are positives to it but the negatives outweigh the positives so it’s better to avoid it (mentioned three separate times to make sure the message sticks, but it’s certainly not the most condemned thing ever).

    Different ways to look at this. Christians feel like they honor by depiction and remembrance.

    I know I’m happy to receive drawings of me made by my kids even though I look like a stick figure or some kind of monster.

    I can vibe with both perspectives. None is more correct than the other.

      They’re both idols of wholly destructive institutions that sap society from conception to the grave, and indidiously impact 99.99% of humanity, regardless of affiliation.

      None is more correct than the other, and they’re both shit, all the way down.
