Nope. Incrementalism.

Think it through.

Why don't you? Are you seriously trying to tell me that the god who will drown the entire world when he's not being obeyed, will turn Lot's wife to salt for turning around when he told her not to, and will, indeed, raze Sodom and Gomorrah completely for not obeying him, suddenly has to walk on eggshells around what humans want when it comes to this one specific issue, and no others? That's seriously your position?

Methinks you're retrofitting shit into the text that was never there before.

Incidentally, am I going to have to go through all your citations in the OP and point out each and every lie of omission you told there? I've done it before- you people aren't exactly original when it comes to your vile slavery apologetics- but I'd much prefer it if you'd just be honest for once. Can you do that, or am I going to have to hold you accountable for your dishonesty?
