Using a bad faith book full of hypocrisies is not a valid way to judge others.
That was the point.
It's exactly the right way to judge those who use the same method of judgement. Calling LGBTQ+ people evil because the book says so? You best be following that book to the letter, or we're going to hit you with it.
If they followed the book to the letter, most of them should be executed.
If they believe it to be absolute truth, yes it is. That's how arguments work. Both sides don't need to believe an argument for it to be wrong, you need only show it isn't self consistent.
