Quran tells us to feed the poor, but we aim for their to be no poor to feed. It tells us to free slaves, but we ought to aim that there be no slaves (and in fact Shiites sources have prayers praying for God to free eventually every slave).
And we are now at the point where we have made a great part of humanity economical slaves. And they ought to be freed as well, and there is a reason Moses is told by Shuaib that he will pay his due and not fall short of it and be good to him and that is important.
When a person works, they deserve a due. And this was a lesson, you are freeing Israelites slave to today, only to prepare them for Mohammad who will free all of humanity from the shackles the dark one seeks to put on them and while it is literally slavery today, don't forget about the economics slaves who are not paid their due effort, and prepare the people to await the Messenger who will be sent to whole world and bring out justice and destroy all Pharoahs.
I don't think the Shiite prayers are needed; because there is already a verse in the Quran about freeing slaves:
Quote:Sura 90, The Quran:
( 11 ) But he has not broken through the difficult pass.
( 12 ) And what can make you know what is [breaking through] the difficult pass?
( 13 ) It is the freeing of a slave
( 14 ) Or feeding on a day of severe hunger
( 15 ) An orphan of near relationship
( 16 ) Or a needy person in misery
( 17 ) And then being among those who believed and advised one another to patience and advised one another to compassion.

You first claimed you could justify this. You couldn't. You then attempted to romanticize it, but failed. Now you're driving in the opposite direction at 90 miles an hour yelling "other people do bad shit too" over your shoulder as you put ground between yourself and your own horrid fairy tale. You knew this would happen. You knew it going in. You knew you couldn't justify it or romanticize it, and you knew you didn't agree with magic book on this issue.
-and yet..here we are. Why? Just...fucking.....why.................?
Could you please provide verses from the Quran, to support your accusations?

Otherwise, no one would care for peace, the worst thing that can happen if it were not for spoils of war, is you change rulers, and that is no big deal.
You talk about compassion, but a lot of the verses in the Qur'an don't come off as very compassionate.
And sure, the ancients had compassion and justice and all that, but for whom? Certainly not the poor people they waged war against, and definitely not for those taken in as slaves to be treated as subhuman. We know from history and from observing today's world that such atrocities have, and still, happen(ed). And if there were a compassionate god out there, I would argue that we would be in a far better world than we are in now, one with far less suffering and far more compassion for others. But we don't live in that world, we live here instead. So I don't see the odds of such a god existing to be anywhere close to good.
Modern human proved to be as barbaric; but with different colors.
The Japanese army's crimes in WW2, the Myanmar genocide against the Rohingya in 2017, the bombing of dresden,...etc.
Modern humans might be even worse if you judge by casualties.

I understand your perspective. I been there. It takes time, just keep reflecting and try to put more then one type of shade glasses you see the color of the world by.
The only person neglecting and dodging is you.

US and it's citizens have no grounds to criticize the ancients for this sorry, until, they apologize as a nation to the whole world for what they did to Japaen.
Just as a person killing humans should not talk about whether it's moral or not to eat cows.
Ok?
Because till then, all I see is vehement attack on ancient people and their texts, while no real regard for morals.
That is correct.
The west should be ashamed of the usage of nukes, and the destruction of the world due to their use.
It's bad to throw people with rocks, when your own house is made out of glass.

That is general talk. Humans in general don't care; nobody fights you on broad meanings like jealousy and grudge. They do it for interest. Not like the Shiite school teach. In other words; the words "jealousy-grudge" are too broad.
Iraq was destroyed for its oil, Syria was destroyed for unknown reasons but all experts agree they had nothing to do with "the evil within". This is romanticizing; mere gymnastics to hide something.
