For those who want proof of the exodus
RE: For those who want proof of the exodus

Keep trying drippy.

RE: For those who want proof of the exodus
I'd like to know how slavery can bring out the very best in people, and whether that, you know, outweighs the slavery itself....

Which again in of itself does not have to be a bad thing. It's when the people in authority choose to abuse or even people who have contracted themselves out do not meet their agreed upon tasks/goals that it becomes a bad thing.. Or even when greed takes the person who is in authority they want more work in exchange for what is right or fair, does slavery become a bad thing.

Slavery is an institution that bring out the very best or the very worst in people, and as history has shown unchecked slavery always brings out the very worst.


So wait...

Are you actually saying, that in some form, under the right hands, slavery is actually okay?

Please describe under what circumstances and what this slavery would look like.

lol, he's forced to provide justification for slavery. The Bible demands he do so.

Of course.

I just want to hear his description of a type of slavery that he thinks is morally acceptable.

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.

The biblical kind, or in the absence of that.... whatever kind god might command.  Any kind, really. Drich is a divine command man, lol. Understand that when you have this sort of discussion with him you won't even be talking about the same things when you use the words "morality", "right", or "wrong".

God said it, that settles it. Get it?

I understand that is the way he erroneously thinks.

If 'god' told him to kill his own kid drippy would say "you got it, lord."

I'll put it this way.

"Sorry" means it won't happen again. I'm going to hold you to that.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'
