This guy is christian, btw. So he's just selective with things he doesn't believe in because he can't see them.
In this case, he's following in his savior's disgusting foot(hand?)steps.
Luke 11:38
They specifically meant hand-washing, as was Jewish custom of the time.
That is fascinating.
I Wondered about the context, and looked it up.
Provided Mr. No Hand Washing is also giving generously to the poor, I guess he is on point. OTOH, Jesus was clearly making a point about wickedness, not germs.

I agree. It was about inner qualities and not anything physical.
More specifically, ritual hand-washing, which was not a matter of cleanliness. There is good indication that Jesus washed his hands before eating, just not the way certain elites wanted him to.
