Morality should not be set in stone.
If it is you get mad things, like muslims saying that sex slavery for captured women is not forbidden, because it is in the old texts as a reasonable thing.

The morality of two thousand or fourteen hundred years ago is not the morality you should use now. The world has moved on.
But the texts dont.
This is why they should not be used to form modern laws or codes of behaviour.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
