[@reefhog]

So they changed the word slave to servant in the bible, to make it seem that slavery wasn’t a thing back then. Anyone who studies history, or even just watches movies and dramas based on history, knows that slavery has been part of history pretty much forever. It was a normal part of life until just over a century ago. This fact alone should show that if the christian god was real, it would have known that slavery is morally wrong and if the bible is that god’s word, it would be wrong in the bible. It was written by men, doing the things that men did at the time it was written. The Romans (nobles and the wealthy) had slaves. They weren’t servants. They weren’t paid. They did exactly what they were told to do, and that could be anything.

One of the oldest extant bibles is a manuscript written in Ancient Hebrew from the 5th or 6th century. The word that was used to describe the Hebrew slaves in Egypt was “Ebet.” When describing slavery in Exodus 21, Leviticus 25, etc., they used the same word, Ebet. So there is no doubt they were talking about slavery, not simply servitude.

[@grahvis]

Someone tried to tell me the word 'rod' in the proverb saying spare the rod and spoil the child, actually meant the crook a shepherd uses with the sheep and not a stick. I pointed out Exodus 20:21, where the word rod is used, and definitely does not mean a shepherd's crook.

Do you think that 10,000 years of translation propagated through translation ad infinitum has produced zero mistakes? 3. How did you verify that the Bible you read is actually the correct content? 4.

Reading the Bible is a great way to become atheist

[@dalecs47]

What would it take for me to believe in god? Very simple, just two things: First is for god to tell all his believers to STOP asking for power and money in his name. And Second: For all god's believers to stop asking for power and money in his name. Let me know when those two things happen.

It’s absolutely ridiculous what religion has done to humanity. It makes you justify bad things.

[@byronarguetaavila]

It is incredible how people try to justify something evil as slavery. They are thought to believe that he bible is perfect and that there is a reason for everything that their god does instead to admit that is wrong.

[@michaelmay5453]

The idea that God needs these people to defend him is all the evidence needed that IF he exists, he is not good.

My favorite video to show how brain washed people are when it comes to religion!!

[@TalTheGardener]

I love how Christians can't answer direct questions

[@Ratciclefan]

They always try to justify slavery, without failure

[@Ratciclefan]

Technically without success, but you know what I mean

Which one the slave bible or the one the ablishnist used

[@hoytoy100]

Did god suddenly speak to Lincoln and make him a prophet to create and issue the emancipation proclamation? Slavery was just and good in gods eyes until then.

Ryan is the worst kind of black guy who defends slavery and actually believe it's a good thing, it's clear to me that he has taken his childhood beliefs into his adulthood, I think all children have a invisible friend but as an adult you are supposed to leave that behind but it's hard to do when you don't want to.

This caller Ryan is trying to find anyway to make an excuse for biblical bull. Slavery is slavery Owning people at any time in history is wrong.

Slavery is a part of life, what about all who are slaves to their mobile phones and social media? Not me!!!

[@jameswright...]

Proof of the harm religion does to critical thinking! A Christian can agree with everything but somehow switch off to what it means. Claims they know the bible until you quote it then it's out of context 😂

If you all have a point favouring slavery maybe guve reasons which God has give that. That would literally be the end of Atheism. Funny why it hasn't come yet

Let's not forget this bullshit garbage scripture Deuteronomy 22:28-29 any woman that reads this and tries to make excuses for it needs to rethink their entire existence

[@golddddus]

The Bible was progressive in late slavery. The idea that it was not permissible to beat a slave to death was revolutionary at the time. As slave ownership declined in early feudalism, slave ownership was replaced by serfdom. So, as time passed, the moral norms changed, so the difference between social and biblical moral norms became bigger and bigger. So the problem of Christian apologists is not ancient slavery, but a desperate attempt to preserve biblical moral norms that have long been overcome. Better a grave than a slave!😎

11:50 The hunter squints into the camera, blood upon his lips. Any who know this hunter, know, he is about to strike. He has sat, still and waiting, unaffected by the pleading of his prey. Here at this moment we see the majestic hawk striking from behind the sun, at a helpless Pidgeon. The crocodile rising from the black depths of the river like a reptilian demi-god. The spider's lightning strike to end its prey, for this prey has wandered into the wrong house. This house, built of logic, will not stand the pleas of the scatter-minded or the apologist. Oh they may wax rhetorical with falsehoods and fallacies, but the dread stones of this chapel of knowledge only echoes logic, and the mindless hear no echo. Just the faint breathing of the predator, waiting, watching.

There are multiple scriptures and rules and laws that do not apply to Christians. We do not live under the law. We live in Love,Joy,Peace,Patience,Kindnes,Goodness,Faithfulness,Gentleness,and,Self Control. Harm no one,Love everyone,Give ,Forgive,Have Grace and Mercy,Be helpful ,Encourage ,Sacrifice ,etc . We don't live by rules and laws but a desire to love and show mercy becouse Jesus loved us first .

[@andrewhilton4850]

@@peter1052 the truth is in the Bible. Unfortunately too many people teach and preach false Christianity. Read pauls letters to the churches. Roman's, colossians ,ephesians ,chorinthians ...etc .we are free to love and not hate ,to forgive and not revenge ,to give and not to take ,have grace and mercy and empathy .love is stronger than any law.

[@peter1052]

@andrewhilton4850 unfortunately , biblical scholarship no longer attributes some/all of those books to paul, they are believed to be forgeries. Idk if you're like the Christian I was, but to me that's a big deal

[@andrewhilton4850]

@@peter1052 those books contain the revelation of salvation by grace through faith that was written down over a 1500 year period by 40 authors in three languages yet was not revealed until after the death and ressurection of Christ. Those books also reveal how we are to live and walk in love and harm no one. That our lives are to benefit others in any way we can. To be peaceful and give and share and forgive . What's your point ? I think your getting distracted by a meaningless argument . Look at the contents of those books or letters and you'll see the truth. But you'll need to really look at them ,not just dismiss them by those who reject and smear what God has preserved for us to know the truth.
