Aliasalpha: Is there a point to karaoke?

Only with accompaniment.

Auguste: At any rate, there's another example of the importance of context.

Navagon: The context being that I was originally responding to the claim that it was only the Old Testament that had such ...... too much stuff

What everyone is saying is that you are taking certain stuff and stating that is what Jesus believe in, but literally omitting the context of whole parable.
Totally non religious example of what you did:
What Jeebus say : "Man can eat whale meat, if the whole world has turn into a giant desert, and only sea life prevails."
How you take stuff out of context "Man can eat whale meat".
And then you add other stuff like "Damn you Japanese people who likes to eat whale meat when there are a lot of chickens or cows or pigs to eat! And isn't that a real kicker, Jeebus the Whale Lover are like so corrupted and altered?"

Yeah, no shit. I get that. However, just because I stated only the relevant parts does not mean I'm oblivious to the broader context. Nor am I oblivious to people claiming that Jesus contradicting himself renders anything they don't like completely irrelevant.
