JFC! The ten commandments endorse slavery, like "You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, or his male servant, or his female servant" - it doesn't say "don't have slaves" but it says "don't have your neighbor's slaves without permission"

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
