Which influence what, exactly? Oh that's right. Which influence personal beliefs.

You moron.

Also, cultural norms and societal context changes just like personal beliefs. Only an idiot believes that slavery was actually morally right in 1840 because society and culture said it was, but since society and culture say otherwise today, it's morally wrong. The same thing was right back then but wrong today.

Only an idiot argues that, but materialistic atheism has no choice (which should give someone a clue about its validity as a system, but people who are angry at God will ignore all manner of obvious evidence against it). What's most hilarious is that your whole reason for posting here is to imply that the Bible was morally wrong for endorsing slavery at a time when the culture of the entire world and every society on the planet supported it.

So according to you, the Bible's moral teaching about slavery was right on.

In name only. It doesn't mean anything.

In the US, murder is wrong even if there is one idiot or a very small minority that thinks otherwise.

No, murder is still illegal even if a small minority thinks it's not morally right. Those are two different things. Just like slavery was LEGAL despite the fact that a small minority thought it was morally wrong in 1840.

You never read any of Foomanchoo’s posts? He believes morality is and should be objective, set forth by “God”, and that the only source is the Bible.

I can't quote Foomanchoo, sorry. But that sounds a lot more like one of your intentionally distorted strawmen than the reality of what he claims. Sorry, but I need proof before acquiescing on that. You haven't earned any trust or any benefit of the doubt, as you are a liar.

Hey dipshit, personal beliefs influence cultural norms and society. Why don’t you state something that makes some kind of rational sense next time rather than circular nonsense.

What are you saying? Are trying to build a straw man or something? Try to control you ADHD.

Seriously, you couldn’t get any dumber, and you wouldn’t even be able to comprehend my explanation.

There you go making shite up again. Why don’t you try not being a lying piece of crap and we could actually maybe have a real discussion on the merits. I had actually stated the opposite - that the Bible was immoral in the subject of slavery.

Ok so if you argue the opposite of my position that murder is wrong, then your argument is murder is morally right. Do you even comprehend the bullshite you write on here?

Projection: the prime weapon of choice for democrats and religious nuts.

Foo has said a thousand times on here that there is an objective moral standard, that it is only because God exists, that God sets the moral standard in his divinely inspired scripture, and Foo is a devotee of Sola Scriptura. If you were only stupid, I’d help you, but since you are also a lazy, untruthful jackass who projects his own faults on others, you can go look up Foo’s posts yourself.

If you decide to change your demeanor and apologize, we can discuss further. Otherwise I’m done with your hypocrite arse.
