Which is immoral.
But not immoral in the bible.
Lol yup
Immorality and morality, or common rights and wrongs, come from mankind. How brilliant to "invent" religions that support one's depravity and justify it as "the word of God."
To that end, slavery, rape, incest, racism, female oppression, sexism, and bigotry all come from the Bible, disguised as "God's laws."
It's very sad. Which is why many Christians have no problem supporting government programs that are designed to marginalize non Christians.

The rebuttal for that will most likely be ...well, cultures back then operated a bit differently you know and um, God might have been testing the faith of his people. And um...
Throw it in the washing machine and set it on the spin cycle.
