What I cited solicited Annik specifically and all of us in general. You are proselytizing.

The slavery in the text I cited was not allegory. It was, for example, the case of a man actually selling his daughter into slavery. In the words of your fairy tale monster.
Quote:Quote:2) YOU MYTHICAL GOD FIGURE REFERENCES THE CASE OF A MAN SELLING HIS DAUGHTER INTO SLAVERY IN THE MATERIAL I QUOTED. This is not indentured servitude. You cannot dodge this with euivocal prestidigitation.But I can point to the reason for the slavery was not for the expressed purpose as a sex toy, as you would have everyone believe. For unattached unsanctioned sex was still a sin. Marriage was the reason for 'barter.' Something that still goes on today between certain families Today.

Strawman much? I said nothing of "sex toys". The babble text, attributed directly to your fairy tale monster, cites a father selling his daughter as a servant, rather than a concubine.
Quote:“Exodus 21:7 If a man sells his daughter as a servant,...
Other parts also seem to refer to concubines, but that is not the only role, as you would have everyone believe. In any case, selling a daughter as a prostitute is an equally abominable custom that your fairy tale also sanctions through its god-character. Selling a person AT ALL into slavery is an abomination. And AGAIN, your claim that this referred to indentured servants, who freely and willingly enter into servitude through a contract is straight-up bullshit.

Any of us who are employed can leave that employment at any time. You are throwing out red herrings and grabbing at straws.
