A Former Atheist

[Esquilax]

Your joking? Seriously, if you can back up even some of your claims we may have some good conversations. 

Well, I don't know if we can have a good conversation, if you begin by saying you read the bible and thus became a christian, but then go on to dispute that some of the more unambiguous rules are in the bible at all.

Does the bible you've read contain, for example, Leviticus?

However, you may purchase male or female slaves from among the foreigners who live among you.  You may also purchase the children of such resident foreigners, including those who have been born in your land.  You may treat them as your property, passing them on to your children as a permanent inheritance.  You may treat your slaves like this, but the people of Israel, your relatives, must never be treated this way.

Or Timothy, if you don't think the Old Testament counts, for whatever baseless reason?

 Christians who are slaves should give their masters full respect so that the name of God and his teaching will not be shamed.  If your master is a Christian, that is no excuse for being disrespectful.  You should work all the harder because you are helping another believer by your efforts.  Teach these truths, Timothy, and encourage everyone to obey them.

So that's slavery, let's move on to the rape victims thing, which is in Deuteronomy 22:

   If a man is caught in the act of raping a young woman who is not engaged, he must pay fifty pieces of silver to her father.  Then he must marry the young woman because he violated her, and he will never be allowed to divorce her.

That backed up enough for you? So, you read the bible but somehow managed to miss all the parts that might make your position look bad?
