Christians should know how to handle the objections. Give me an example and I will give it a try.
Ok, here we go.  Let's start with Exodus 21.  Ready to receive excuses....

I predict the answer: they weren't slaves but willing servants. Or God let them have slaves because he didn't want to deprive the poor guys from owning human property.

Hey, don't get me wrong, I enjoy watching christians try to tap dance their way around biblical BS, and I also enjoy watching them continually move the goalposts in attempts to "explain" the bible, but my comment was more about how I personally have no interest in participating with the endeavor. 

I used to play with them, now it is more of a spectator sport for me.

I understand.  Take your time.  Eventually you'll find one that you need to kick in the nuts.

All things come to those who wait.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Jesus Fucking Christ, some of those are straight from Jesus Himself.

I think I am suffering from No True Scotsman Dysphoria Syndrome now.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

You're going to have to be more specific. There are 36 verses.
