Fox News host Sean Hannity dedicated a segment of his Thursday show to deliver a message to Pope Leo XIV, suggesting he and others at the Vatican had totally lost sight of the true meaning of the bible and its teachings.

The parts of the bible he is talking about:

'King David had 500 concubines, for crying out loud'

(him defending Trump in 2016, according to Wikipedia)

And the part of the Bible he was talking about isn't even in the Bible. It says David had concubines, but it doesn't say how many.

It does tell us that Solomon had 300 concubines (in addition to 700 wives). Solomon expanded on his father's excesses, so David probably had a more modest number of women in his household.

I'm sure Fox personalities wouldn't really care that atheists know more about the Bible than they do. My money is on most of them not actually believing anything they say on TV. (Remember those text messages about Trump?)

Mary was, what, ~14 when their deity impregnated her, so yeah... Their baseline is not well calibrated.

I mean yeah, that's the one thing the Pope and Trump would agree on.
