My uncle, whom i work with, refuses to speak to me or even be in the same room as me all just because I was reading the glr classic book "White Power". I guess he got triggered by the title and swastikas on the cover. Fucking ridiculous, how you gonna stay mad at someone for reading a book ?

Plenty of passages are contradicted by common logic and by other passages.
Anyway, did you miss the part where I agreed with you?
Yes the passage meaning is that you should put God above your family. This is what I have an issue with.
You said:
> If our family members fall to falsehoods and lies, we're obligated to stand firm in truth, and to not all victim to our own family's faults, no matter how much we may love them. This is the correct interpretation of that passage. We're not supposed to fully reject and hate our family, only to prioritize truth (God) above our family.
Let me ask you something, as a thought experiment.
Imagine you have a 20 years old son who comes home from a night out and he's very upset, crying and scared, and he tells you that he forced himself on a girl. He doesn't know what got into him, but he raped this girl.
Would you:
1) Convince him to turn himself in, and if he doesn't, report him to the authorities.
2) Ask what kind of evidences the girl may have against him, and think about how to provide him with an alibi.
