Tradition is not backwards, UN!

Hey, United Nations! Why are you picking on us for being backwards and outdated in our theology? You have gone too far. If we want to be outdated and backwards, that is ours to do. We call it “tradition.” So, yeah, slavery and usury used to be on the list, but they became too outdated if not inconvenient. God moves in strange and mysterious ways.  We do too, only a lot more slowly than even God.
