My friend, at some point you need to actually read a text before you can reasonably comment on it. I want to talk about several things that you’re not understanding based on wiki readings, but it would do no good because you haven’t read the text yourself. You owe it to yourself not to let other people make your opinions for you!

A friend of mine thinks the Bible says it’s okay to sell your children into slavery because they decided to let someone else read the Bible and tell them what it meant. They never read it for themselves, only let someone else make an outraged YouTube video about the evils of Christianity and then believed that video without question.

Listening to YouTubers and reading articles and wikis are not even remotely useful replacements for reading a book yourself and coming to your own conclusion. Hearing other people’s analysis on a text can be super useful, but it should never come first.
