Troll. In context He speaking of the Father.
9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.
12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.
@NBrasing@GBalasingam@ArmyMfers@T4TWitchSlvt@athiestboi Fair point. I did a little research and saw that the same verse were used on both sides of the abolitionist movement but both sides were argument was on how they were acquired. And basically if they were kidnapped or not
Thanks I have a ton of them but I have found Gemini to be the best image generator. 😉
Not purposely
Mistaken reading of my post was what started the endless debate.
I didn’t mind it was fun and I got to interacting with a lot of people.
So what was it I missed?
I read it as a debate that the Bible was silent on slavery.
That answer proves you are an🤣 IDIOT 🤣lack of evidence does not prove anything.
1891: William Housman distinguished “absence of evidence and evidence of absence.”
1895: W. J. Sollas criticized those who “treat the absence of evidence as evidence of absence.”
Carl Sagan helped make it widely known. He used it in The Dragons of Eden (1977) and discussed it in The Demon-Haunted World (1995) as a critique of the “impatience with ambiguity” in appeals to ignorance. He treated it as an existing aphorism
The related logical concept of the argument from ignorance (argumentum ad ignorantiam) goes back much further — the term is usually credited to John Locke in the late 17th century.
The Bible did condemn it but God knew they do it anyway so he regulated. It actually called for death penalty
Exodus 21:16 (KJV)
And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death.
Deuteronomy 24:7 (KJV)If a man be found stealing any of his brethren of the children of Israel, and maketh merchandise of him, or selleth him; then that thief shall die; and thou shalt put evil away from among you.
Tell the whole story Atheist and Muslims Cherry pick a few word out of context. A half truth is a whole lie. take that as you will.
To slander the Bible you have to lie about it.
There are many records in the Bible of men acting bad
Moses was a murder
David was an audultry and a murder
Noah drank to much
The Bible is full of bad examples but these are not
Exodus 12
10th plague
Pharaoh had 10 chances to let the nation of Israel go.
The first born was not all children as you are implying
it include first born adults also
The Egyptian had been drowning all the male children of the nation of Israel
Egypt was treating the whole nation under bitter, ruthless slavery that escalated to state-ordered killing of infant boys, with further punishment when liberation was sought. God is described as responding to this suffering by sending Moses.
Isaiah 13
Was not even about the Jewish people. God was describing what the Medes and Persians would to to the Chaldeans.
Deuteronomy 21
Was actually protecting the women. Before God gave this law. It was the practice ancient Near Eastern for victors to commonly treated female captives as IMMEDIATELY AS SEXUAL SLAVES AND RAPE AND KILL THEM OR PUT THEM INTO SLAVERYWITH NO RIGHTS
If they had not taken them as slaves they would have starved or been capture by less savory men.
They had to wait a month before marrying them.
INSTEAD OF SELLING THEM IF THEY DIVORCE THEM THEY WERE SET FREE.
@lostinganglia I am old enough to remember when it was taught in school
In cosmology, the steady-state theory (proposed in 1948 by Hermann Bondi, Thomas Gold, and Fred Hoyle) held that the universe is eternally expanding but has no beginning or end. As it
@NecroticErotic@athiestboi@grok Again I apologize. You are quite correct. Man it good to see a logical debater. Sorry i took you for one of those attack dogs that I usually get
That alone should tell you that morals are not bound to religious teachings on principle.
Actually I said the opposite multiple times in this thread. Everyone has a conscience except sociopath. Never said different. check the thread if you like.
Ok then I apologize. Yes No are Usually gotta questions
Actually I enjoyed this back and forth. I mean it you actually debated. Rarely see that on X.
Time for me to hit the sack.
We can continue tis tomorrow if you like.
@kacper132m@athiestboi No read the post chain I answered it 2 or 3 times without referring to the religion.
You just wasted an insult
That's lazy
Try again.
If you need insult strangers to feel like a big boy.
Sorry that you need a monosyllabic.
NO
Now you are going to quote Deuteronomy to me.
That is Mosaic law I am not under that law.
Wow you really got me with that got me wit that bad faith question.
Romans 6:14 (KJV)
For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.
Deuteronomy 13:6-10
If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, which is as thine own soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which thou hast not known, thou, nor thy fathers;
Namely, of the gods of the people which are round about you, nigh unto thee, or far off from thee, from the one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth;
Thou shalt not consent unto him, nor hearken unto him; neither shall thine eye pity him, neither shalt thou spare, neither shalt thou conceal him:
But thou shalt surely kill him; thine hand shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand of all the people.
And thou shalt stone him with stones, that he die; because he hath sought to thrust thee away from the Lord thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
@NecroticErotic@athiestboi@grok Oh you can tell when a person is losing the argument starts with passive aggressive Ad Hominem attacks next come the direct Ad Hominem attacks
