    The Bible doesn’t promote slavery or the subjugation of women, the stonings are the old levitical law.

        That’s not promoting slavery. It’s addressing slavery that’s already happening.

        Also worth mentioning this isn’t like chattel slavery

            It’s addressing it. Not promoting it.

                Ephesians 6:9 ESV

                Masters, do the same to them, and stop your threatening, knowing that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and that there is no partiality with him.

                Doesn’t sound like Trump/Epstein, knife wielding, or bombing gazans behaviour to me.

                1 Timothy 1:8-11 ESV

                Now we know that the law is good, if one uses it lawfully, understanding this, that the law is not laid down for the just but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who strike their fathers and mothers, for murderers, the sexually immoral, men who practice homosexuality, enslavers, liars, perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound doctrine, in accordance with the gospel of the glory of the blessed God with which I have been entrusted.

                    An indentured servant is not comparable to a sex slave 🤦

                    And I show you a bit of the Bible which condemns enslaving people after you claim it is promoting slavery because it is apparently silent on the topic, and you just say “contradiction!” Damned if you do, damned if you don’t.

                    I’ve read the Bible before I started going to Church full time. There’s nothing in it telling you who to vote for. Or to hate groups of people.

                    violent situation with all of your current support networks rugpulled from beneath you. It’s fucking terrifying.

                    My family has a mix of religious belief or lack thereof. I really doubt that would happen, considering my beliefs differ from my parents, and I have a sibling who is even a different religion.
