It does.

Oh grow a skin already!

And yes, exodus 21 does talk about setting slaves free... 7 years after you BUY them. And of course if that slave wants to stay with his wife and kids, then he has to submit to a lifetime of being a slave to do so.

That seem Ok to you Lion.? Honestly?

'The more I learn about people the more I like my dog'- Mark Twain

'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House

“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom

"If my good friend Doctor Gasparri speaks badly of my mother, he can expect to get punched.....You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others. There is a limit." - Pope Francis on freedom of speech

Allowing slaves to be bought and sold is one kind of horrible, for sure, even if the silver lining is that they get to go free later. Yet, among all that, it gets even worse when they throw in provisions on how a slave is to be beaten. A slave goes free in the end, yes, but he and his family should never have been slaves in the first place. How are you okay with knowing that the Bible is pro-slavery, Lion?

Well shit! Offended on someone else's behalf.

I take back telling you to grow a skin Lion. Instead, realise that other people have a skin.

Lion, quit hiding behind the girls when you get offended. And a friendly word of advice: don't send fallacious reports to the mods or they'll get their panties in a bunch.
..was that sexist?
If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!

Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.

Dead wrong.  The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.

Quote:Some people deserve hell.

I say again:  No exceptions.  Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it.  As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.

Yes.


I'm happy. I dont have a drug problem. I dont want for anything. I'm a pacifist. I'm not depressed. Have no self-harm issues. And money cant buy any of the the things which are most precious in my life.
Demonstrate how your happiness and contentment are byproducts of your religion and I'll do the same for my atheism. I doubt you're equipped for the challenge.
