The Bible: A Moral book?!
#62
RE: The Bible: A Moral book?!
I don't want an abortion thread either but I was hard pressed to come up with a better example of how the golden rule depends on recognizing the humanity of others. For example a group of lettered ethicists have already gone so far as to deny our moral obligations to very young children and claim that infanticide is acceptable because they are not fully human.

There seems to be no limits on how much depravity can be rationalized away.
