Believe in God all you want, be Christian all you want, but please be a better person, please don't be bigoted and homophobic and just be decent to people rather than mock them.
What do you think this WHOLE Thread is about?
When you say "better person" what standard do you use to judge me wrong/bad or right/good? What society says? So let me fast forward and ask you what if society was corrupt like the Nazis? how could you possibly know if your version of Good was really good? Or what you deem bad, really bad??
The Nazi people did not know they were bad. Because everything they did was justified by their society's "morality." It was only after WWII that the Nazis were made to face and accept their evil deeds.
So like wise if you are in a society that has NEVER been defeated in a war like the Nazis were, then how do you know for sure your version of 'morality' is really Moral?
If this is the case how can you be sure that what you believe about or how you identify slavery or bigotry is right?
What if what you think the word slavery means is not what it means? Or how you identify a bigot has very little to do with the meaning of the word?
If you are wrong (and this whole 40+ page thread is a discussion on how you are indeed wrong) then your judgement/morality means nothing.
Quote:How can you think that? That's truly despicable. Slavery is about as immoral as you can get.
If this is the case then why do you support it with the food you eat or the products you buy?
What do you suggest the people do who depend on being a slave do to survive? Not just one or two people but 2/3rds of the world population lives well below the poverty level. (meaning they can not support their lives/basic living expenses with the money they make)
