Except it is so shriekingly Americocentric as to be postively inaccurate.

Is there a branch of Christianity that is heavily Bible-based and still has justification for "being unable to like female characters because they're slutty"?

That sort of logic sounds exactly like contemporary American/Anglo Christian logic, so I responded with the relevant cultural more/context.

Though quite frankly, it still applies to just about any branch of Christianity, or hell any religion with a heavy basis in a singular religious text. The religion will be as much about the culture as the actual religious document by virtue of the fact such religious documents are so long and comprehensive, they eventually contradict themselves, anyway. Eventually, a culture or religious sect has to 'pick' one interpretation, which means ignoring the other ones - and with them, actual things said in the document. Bible, Qur'an, Mahabharata, etc., it happens over and over again around the world and throughout history.

So yes, my response is Americocentric given that an Anglo-American religious culture is being implied by the secret. But I don't see how that would actually make it inaccurate in the context of describing religious cultures in general, seeing as most of what I said is hardly an American-only phenomenon.
