Never said slavery wasn't mentioned or spoken about bullet. The context of it the way you chose to view it is where we disagree. I'm ok if you view Christianity as immoral. I don't expect you to believe anything good about it. As long as you can be ok with me saying that I believe you're wrong, there's nothing immoral about Christianity.What is interesting is that your god, who's words are supposedly contained in the bible, could not see into the future and more specifically convey back then that slavery was immoral.
Which tells me that no god had anything to do with the bible. The contents reflect man morals and actions at the time.
You are obviously not well versed in history. The Jews were never enslaved like what was told in the bible. The Exodous. Never Happened.
Not immoral when the bible was written = morals of man.
Laws that man has made have been revised over the years. Updated.
The contents of the bible stay the same. The same bible that you can buy hot off the press today contains the same immoral acts as it did a thousand years ago.
Is your god unwilling to change?
Is there really a god involved?
So where did ol Moses get his laws from? According to the bible....god.
And going by that story, your god gave specific instructions all throughout the books of the bible(not just Exodous) regarding slavery.
Are you cherry picking again? You totally missed the quotes that justify beatings, the selling of wives and children of "servants", and can sell your "servants" to others.
No matter how hard you try to not acknowledge slavery, it is in there for all to see.
I bet if you got home and your family was sold off you'd keep wearing the servant tshirt huh?
Take the time to read the other posts that I made about "servants". Knowledge is not a bad thing.
