Hi, I recently released v1.6.0 of my app, bible feed, to f-droid. For some reason it has been tagged as NSFW and I notice this new metadata has been added to the top: AntiFeatures: NSFW: en-US: Promote ■■■■ and violence contents. https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/blob/master/metadata/com.me2christ.bible_feed.yml But this is a simple bible reader app that obviously does not promote ■■■■ or violence in any way. I did not add this metadata, so where did it come from and why has it been...
That’s bullshit. Other atheists can be so fucking stupid when the Bible is brought up. Can’t ever discuss it because it’s fiction even though we can write 1000 page essays on Bloodborne lore. Shakespeare is a bunch of people putting humanity into some stories and we appreciate that but because morons created religion that means the Bible is useless.
And the “Bible has rape, obviously it’s bad, duh!!” shit. Just change it to “LGBT book has rape, ban it!” and join your people. What’s the point of leaving religion when you’re so dogmatic? You’re literally built to be a crusader. Posers.
The difference is in the endorsement of horrible behaviour. So, if the same horrible things were encouraged in an LGBTQ+ book, I would expect it to get the same response as what the bible is getting.
It’s historical fiction. The Bible predates religion: straight from the cult era. Christians, Muslims, and Jews are just dingle berries stuck to our cultural relics. These books belong to secular people. And since when are secular people using this stuff to promote rape?
For that reason, plus being against such puritan attitudes toward content, is why I think censoring this stuff is bullshit.
People are going to stoop to hyper literal interpretations of a NSFW label and ignore the subject of cens*rsh*p… Because religious people suck? I get it, but this is our shit. Fuck what they say or think about our fiction.
Oh, don’t get me wrong, I also don’t think the bible should be censored. It’s just that the bible does endorse bad behaviour, such as how to treat slaves (and thus owning slaves). It is not just a piece of fiction that nobody believes in, and it wasn’t written by people who just wanted to entertain their friends. A lot of the bible is about morality.

Endorsement? Or depictions?
