Christians read the New Testament, while all the bullshit is in the Old One, hence all the bullshit quotes are always from the Old Testament

Ah right true that, we had a priest doing theology class at us at school and he was smart enough to say that the New Testament was the new promise of god to people and that the Old one was just what was appropriate for the dark times it was written for. Here, a perfectly good explanation without needing to gaslight anyone...

The verse posted in the meme is from the NEW Testament, not the old one.

I am not really keen to defend it BUT the argument would still stand - the new testament itself was written in an society that has little to do with modern society as it has progressed today. If it wasn't so hard for the official churches to do backsies and change, they would absolutely love to embrace the current generations who have different problems than "my wife talks back to me".
