Black and white religions

Black and white religions
Just to mention some verses.

"Psalm 14:1
For the director of music. Of David. The fool says in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, their deeds are vile; there is no one who does good."
"Colossians 3:18-23 : 25
Wives, submit yourselves to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord. Husbands, love your wives and do not be harsh with them.Children, obey your parents in everything, for this pleases the Lord.Fathers, do not embitter your children, or they will become discouraged.Slaves, obey your earthly masters in everything; and do it, not only when their eye is on you and to curry their favor, but with sincerity of heart and reverence for the Lord.Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, Anyone who does wrong will be repaid for their wrongs, and there is no favoritism."

Fool in this sense doesn't really mean dumb as in a stupid person, it comes from the hebrew Word Nabai which basically means lack of moral guidance or something. You can Google it up yourself, probably some bible Word checkers on it.

In either case what i have a problem With the bible, although i am sure all 3 monotheistic religions have the same concept. Either you are in or you are out, there is no in between.

Atheists have no moral guidance.
Homosexuals are corrupt or sexual abusers in some cases.
Women can't be Church leaders
Drunkards are all crappy people.

So the bible is basically promoting black and white mindset, like they basically judge the origin of something not on the quality of something. So this means you have to essentially isolate and hate anything that upsets Your lifestyle. While i think the bible do have some good life lessons, like that part With Samson and Delilah in terms of lust, it would essentially lead to his downfall because he let himself become tricket and lost his self value due to it. And then there is the part about Jesus saying "anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has commited adultery in his hearth" which i Guess would mean dont get intention of stealing other wives. But it usually means by most believers to mean dont have lewd thoughts about women you see. In either case porn stars are having the life.

I either way have problems With this because it is more or less judging the origin of a person's lifestyle not the quality of it. So thats why i just couldnt join into this. The same could be said like "children should be obidient to their parents" while yes you should be good to the one who gave you birth, but if the idea is to obey an abusing father then no way, you dont have to give one hoot if that happens. And slavery is immoral, so that should be illegal in the first Place, dont care if the bible is ok With free slaves, slavery is in general not that cool.

But Yeah, thats the reason i kinda have some problems With it.
