You know, I really, really hate this patronising style, talking down to people as if they are tiny children and full of unnecessary exclamation marks. I do not think even children will find it appealing. I think they will see it as "Trendy Vicar Syndrome" , trying unconvincingly to "get dahn wiv ve kids". https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Trendy Vicar I would advise you, or the owner of the crapbot responsible, to change to a more "straight" style of presentation, one that shows at least a bit of respect to the reader. And just to reiterate what I told you before, this is a science forum, so talking to the readership here as if we are kids that don't know any science is not appropriate.

Why don't religious types actually answer questions? Thanks for repeating yourself. Why do I bother?

Who made that determination? So if two slaves got together from different eras you are suggesting they would have nothing in common wrt their social standing. I am dubious.

Plus, the overall method was largely empirically derived over a long time period. There really was no founder, but a whole lot of pioneers.

Oh marvellous, the end of the US monopoly on chatbots to fill the internet with shit. Now we can have Chinese shit too. Splendid, splendid.

First of all, I am saying that ethics is people's words. Atheists, I believe are not immoral folks, they also help each other. The bottom line of the Bible is "Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself"Matthew 22 Christianity teaches that you help others not because somebody told you to or it is written somewhere, but because you love people. Also I mentioned that Egyptian were punished for enslaving Jews. The key question is that slavery in the Bible is in no way similar to the racial slavery that our world has suffered from for the past few centuries. "8 We know that the Law is good if one uses it properly. 9 We also know that the Law is made not for the righteous but for lawbreakers and rebels, the ungodly and sinful, the unholy and irreligious, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers, 10 for the sexually immoral, for those practicing homosexuality, for slave traders and liars and perjurers—and for whatever else is contrary to the sound doctrine" 1 Timothy 1:8-10 False. Because the ideas they support are against Christianity. "You then, who eat only vegetables — why do you pass judgement on others? And you who eat anything — why do you despise other believers? All of us will stand before God to be judged by Him. 11 For the scripture says: “As surely as I Am the living God, says the Lord,everyone will kneel before Me,and everyone will confess that I Am God.” Romans 14

"Be under obligation to no one — the only obligation you have is to love one another.Whoever does this has obeyed the Law." Romans 13 This is the question. Slavery in the Bible is not similar to the slavery on a race or skin colour.
