Follow me Down...

A blog of random loves as well as (what I consider) artful arties, with the occasional piece of my own. Including but not limited to photos, prints, people, sculptures, films, ice creams etc...you may or my not agree, but as with most things in life art is about perspective, mine is not always the same as everyone else...but who knows, on any given day it just might be. Enjoy...or dont...but please feel free to follow me down the road, if even for just a moment.

OMFG OUT OF CONTEXT. YOU HAVE TO READ TEH WHOLE BIBUL. IT WAS THE CULTURE OF THE TIME. HJKHLDFJKGHLDKJG

I love how Christians suddenly become wishy-washy liberals when these parts of the Bible come up.

Yeah and then they claim that we should base our morality on the Bible and ask where atheists get our morality from.

My question is if morality comes from god and the Bible is how he communicated that morality to us, what moral principles are we mere mortals supposed to use to determine which parts of the Bible to ignore?

Slavery is bad because it’s bad, not because the Bible says it’s bad. In fact the Bible is totally cool with slavery.

Misogyny is bad because it’s bad, not because the Bible says it’s bad. In fact the Bible is totally cool with mysogyny.

Genocide is bad because it’s bad, not because the Bible says it’s bad. In fact god ordered numerous horrific genocides.

Human sacrifice is bad because it’s bad, not because the Bible says it’s bad. Ever read the story of Jephthah? (Judges 11:31-39)

etc…

Reblogging this for the guy I work with who started trying to claim the Koran was a terrible text full of hate and murder.  He looked so confused when I told him his mix of fibers(clothes) meant he should be stoned. 

Just about anything can be used to support your point..here is a great example…Keep this in mind next time you use “The bible (or any other text or philosophy for that matter) says…” to support your argument.
