What is the central theme of the entire Bible in one word (if possible)?

OBEY!

The bible proposes nonsense as “the wisdom of god”:

Homosexuality is an “abomination” to god. Oddly, this is the only abomination most christians worry about, for other people. What about the abominations above? What about christians conquering lust themselves? If homosexuals go to hell for not conquering their desires, then obviously christians will go to hell for not conquering theirs.

Is spinach easy to grow?

The central theme of the bible, in a single word, is:

In the Old Testament you could be stoned to death, for thinking independently.

From beginning to end, the bible is all about using fear of nonexistent beings — monsters under the bed, monsters in the closet — to control the minds and behavior of people gullible enough to believe evil nonsense.

My parents force me (15yo atheist) to go to church, and there’s this thing called Small Sundays where we discuss the Bible in groups, there are questions asked about the Bible. What am I supposed to do when they ask?

In the New Testament, you will go to an infinitely cruel, purposeless “hell” for thinking independently.

“Whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.” (Matthew 5:28)

What happens if one doesn’t OBEY! the dictates of the creators of such nonsense?

As a NATO/Ukraine supporter, since you're so blown away and angered by Trump putting Zelensky in his place yesterday, why don't you support the Ukraine by joining the Ukrainian army? There's 200,000,000+ of you. Put your money where your mouths are.

Sexual desire (“lust”) is evil, and to desire someone is the same as committing adultery:

by Michael R. Burch

Except that it’s all nonsense, including “hell,” which was never once mentioned by the biblical god or his prophets in bible passages covering 4,000 years from Adam and Eve to the last prophets.

I told my 13-year-old daughter that she should never start a fight, but has my permission to end it. She got suspended for ending a fight that some other girl picked with her by hitting her then retreating. How do I handle the school’s response?

Human beings eating bacon, pork and shellfish is an “abomination” to god. Of course the vast majority of christians eat such “abominations” while claiming to “love” god, who they claim is the same “yesterday, today and forever” and thus still abominates such foods. How can people who “love” god do something he loathes? Is their love a “sham” because they love bacon more than god?

Everyone “lusts” and no one repents of lust, as in not immediately lusting again. The apostle Paul said all adulterers go to hell, so all christians are going to hell!

Women wearing men’s clothes is an “abomination” to god. Of course the vast majority of christian women have worn pants.

What are some tips for a girl with low self-esteem to start dating?

And thus coupled with OBEY! is the parallel dictate “Never, ever, think for yourself!”

Making love is evil, unless sanctioned by marriage. Of course the vast majority of christians have sex outside marriage.
