You have heard it: you are not a Christian if you don't adhere to the dietary laws and calls to war. It's a cheap tactic to put you on the defensive, and it's not as hard to respond to as people think.

The truth is some of the most biblically fundamental individuals are Atheists. How do you respond when faced with people who want to use the Old Testament as a weapon? Do you see the pushback when you say it's using it out of context?

When did context become a bad thing? Only in the hands of those who want to use history as a weapon. History could be used just as effectively against them, but self-reflection is lacking these days.
