Yes, but it's tied up in a bunch of other bits like not eating pork and worshipping a particular deity.

- philwelch 9y agoBecause clearly George Steinbrenner is a better moral teacher than Jesus.
- wavefunction 9y agoJesus didn't talk about eating pork or not though.

- dang 9y agoPlease keep HN threads free of religious flamewar. The parent comment wasn't particularly substantive but veering into general litigation of (biblical) religion definitely leads nowhere good. All such discussions are the same and therefore off-topic here.
