The question that makes fundies hostile

... me and my equality wrist band...

Shame on you for such a divisive display of want for equality

[Drich]

Slavery

We have a winner here. An honest and direct answer. Psychotic, but honest.

One thing that is clear here, Drich, is that you are making an assumption -- you are assuming that in this slavery-allowing society that you would be on the preferable end of the slavery. So let's throw something in to make it more difficult for you. YOU are the slave. But in the same-sex marriage society there would be no requirement for you to participate in a same-sex marriage, it would be just to allow others that freedom.

Does that change your answer?

Not a hard choice to make. God set up a soceity that allowed for slavery, and condemned homosexuality. Therefore slavery is not as bad as homosexuality. The fact that soceity says that your intolerance should be reversed only speaks to declining 'morality' in soceity.

Whether that makes me a slave, slave owner or none of the above if we were forced to pick one of the two societies I will pick slavery.

But slavery is still bad, just to a lesser degree, correct?

Since you admitted that your god set it up, does it not logically follow that god is bad for having set up something that is bad?

Slavery is not intrinsically bad. It is what man does with slavery that makes it evil..

You are reaching.

Is there some sort of mechanism that goes off in your mind that makes you protect your evil god no matter how logical the argument in support of his evilness?

I asked you how much for your family. Specifically, how much for your wife and daughter? I have cash and an agenda.

Claiming ownership of another human being and using them for your own wants is not intrinsically bad? How is it good? Or is it not intrinsically good or bad? It's neutral?

I must say that it is not often nowadays that one encounters a person who is so enthusiastic about slavery.

Would you rather have slavery or an atheist President of the US?

I have noticed that if you ask a fundie whether they would prefer to live in a society in which same-sex marriage is legal or a society that allows slavery -- they get mad.

As I see it, they reason that this question bothers them so much is that it puts them in a bind. They are forced to admit that contemporary secular morality is obviously more advanced and rational than Biblical barbarism, or admit to being psychotic.

Here is a question for you....would you rather worship Allah or Moloch?
