@I_Am_Discontent@GeoffVScott @Renlovesfungus @OfficeofABC Update: rather then engaging with me in good faith or trying to refute my claims or even accepting he was wrong, he chose to block me.
This is a very un heathly mindset to have, of blocking rather then searching for the truth
@Renlovesfungus @OfficeofABC If referring to the "bitter waters" test this is not true. The whole "cause her to miscarry" is a mistranslation. Reading the chapter in any other translation will show it's not about abortion and rather a test to see if a woman has cheated on her husband.
@ArmisDei Values *can* be passed down, that doesn't mean they are followed. Nor does that mean that a person's values reflect that of a ancestor.
I am the only practicing Christian in my family
@ArmisDei I'm not denying that our environment effects world view, rather im saying your wife's grandfather has little effect on your world view, and you have little effect on his.
@ArmisDei @EagleScout7476 Again you're missing the point, my point is not that i think my ancestors are evil for slavery. My point is that views aren't genetic. The views of grand father and a grand son in law are not magically going to be connected.
@ArmisDei @EagleScout7476 I am not saying slavery is uniquely American lol i never said that. I didn't even mention America or being American. I'm saying just because one of my forefathers owned slaves doesn't mean i support slaverly.
@ArmisDei @EagleScout7476 Yeah and i have a slaver ancestor, and i hate slavery. views aren't genetic.
Also the fact you have to dismissively call him a dumb animal is just so sad man.
