Well it’s just funny you’d choose to deconstruct this bible quote, which is generally used to support messages of love and acceptance, rather than one that condones violence or hate.

Okay and maybe it’s because I’m an atheist, but you have to hear how that sounds right? “Love for others is secondary”? To your god? And also that this is something you’re considering not horribly important? Also it would still be a rule. It’s still in your bible. And, call me crazy I don’t know, it seems like your Jesus cared about his neighbors. Giving his body for others, washing peoples feet, helping the poor and needy. Do his actions not enforce this message for you?

If you believe “to love god is to love humans”, then doesn’t that contradict your own initial point? I just think the fact that you felt the need to specify that “love thy neighbor” isn’t Jesus’s words or even his main message, but it was to love god, but loving god means loving humans… do you see where this is going? It’s just very silly that you felt called to specify that a message to discourage hate wasn’t Jesus’s, and then you go on to prove that actually this is a huge message for him.
