I wonder if he thinks his God is proud of his intolerance?
The Ten Commandments (Exodus 20:2-17 NKJV)
1 “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before Me."
2 “You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My Commandments."
Based on that, the answer to your question is Yes. Not only are there two Commandments specifically about this, but it's the very first and second ones.
Unless we're arguing that Christians are not bound by the Ten Commandments because Jesus created a new covenant. But most American Christians don't seem to agree with that based on their interest in displaying the Ten Commandments in public buildings
Funny, that says a lot about what he shouldn't do and nothing about what other people shouldn't do.
He's saving them from the violent generational "iniquity" described in Commandment 2
Or at least would be if he believed in this himself. More likely that he just opposes any "disrespectful" nonadherence to tradition and normalized hierarchy. Which is dumb in an even worse way
