The whole thing about being unequally yoked is about forbidding animal abuse, but you do you.
2 Corinthians 6:14. Not that I believe this shit anymore, but that's not true. I've heard a number of in-depth sermons on this verse. Marriage partners being "unequally yoked", and how marriage partners need to be on the same team, pulling in the right direction, sharing the same values.
The original verse is Duet 22:10 and it's a prohibition against abusing a working animal.
I wasn't aware of the later Christian tradition of interpreting it as a metaphor for nonbelivers. Thanks for sharing it.
