This is not the gotcha people think it is. Bible thumpers only pay attention to a few sections of the new testament anyways.

Nope. Phyllis Schlafly's son Andrew (Phyllis is the woman who more or less single handedly ensured the ERA didn't pass, persuading American women that somehow they didn't even want equality) ran (still runs maybe?) a web site where among other things he "re-translates" the Bible so that e.g. Jesus's preaching is "Properly" translated to mean whatever it is suits his worldview.

Religion is about believing things you have no evidence for, that's its whole thing.

There is a series on Disney+ about this, "Mrs America". Worth watching.
