Why is it that back in biblical days people were murdering, killing, raping, etc in the name of god.
Opposed to now where people for the most part are more moral to the biblical counter part.
Lol, Morality is not an absolute.
What was moral a generation or two ago is immoral today and vise versa.
For instance Homosexuality was Immoral a generation ago, and now it is immoral to question it's pop morality. another example two generations ago abortion was Highly Immoral, and now to try and stop an abortion will land one in jail. In 1940's Germany it was one's civic duty to report unregistered jews, and the state sponcered church made it a moral sin to anyone who protected jews.
Morality changes with the culture. What it popular and moral today can be considered Highly immoral tomorrow.
I never said morality is absolute what i am saying is morality changes.
Homosexuality isn't a sin nor is it immoral it happens in nature deal with it.
All i am stating is that people in the biblical days of the bible had a different
set of morals. These set's of morals back then were deemed fine only because
of the the culture and religion. Now in this day and age we don't kill blasphemers,
witches, stone people, or even follow the bad parts of the bible, unless it's in the third world but
even then. Morality is subjective there is no moral absolutes. Morals are gained
from society at large like we know not to kill, steal or rape etc because it's immoral.
Like you believe that owning other humans is fine most people wouldn't agree with you
even if religion supports it.
Atheism is a non-prophet organization join today.
