Why didn't god write the bible accurately?

[pjmret]

Maybe God allowed Jews to own slaves thousands of years ago but don't be fooled into falsely believing God allows sinners to force people into slavery today.

1 Timothy 1:9-10​

King James Version​

​

9 Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,​

10 For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;​

Nope

How could you possibly know what god thinks today? Who do you think you are! What a load of shit.

The overwhelming majority of those early Americans who supported and promoted the enslavement of blacks were unbelievers or disobedient believers in their association with Christianity.

According to you but you couldn't say for sure. It's just you stereotyping them.

I don't know how many or how few early Christians supported slavery and neither do you. Brazenly declaring that most early Christians supported slavery is not only dishonest but wicked.

Nobody can find God recommending slavery in our day and nobody can deny the evidence that God will judge menstealers when he returns to earth soon as Judge.

No one can find God recommending ANYTHING in our day. EVERYONE can deny that there is evidence of what this "God" character will do.

The Bible tells us that when Jesus dies, zombies popped out of their tombs, that insanity is caused by demons and can be cured with swine, that mutifabric clothing is banned. It tells us to stone sassy children to death.

The Bible is simply a compendium of the thoughts of a multitude of Jewish priests and self-proclaimed prophets.

This is a wacky idea of jurisprudence: Laws apply to EVERYONE. That is what laws are: rules for everyone in a given society.

Isn't Trump what would be called a "WHOREMONGER"? He lies daily, he is clearly a perjured person. We know he is rapey and likes to grab women by their pussies.

And silly, silly Mark wants us to believe that God wants Trump to be president.

Christian run America put slavery in its constitution claiming that Christians didn't support slavery overall is not only dishonest but wicked

The only governmental system mentioned in the Bible is hereditary monarchy. So Jesus, who never held anything remotely like public office, will return as King of Kings, Lord of Lords, Grand High Poobah of Poobahtry.

The only figure that decides who shall rule any given country is God, or perhaps Satan.

Christians thought of slavery in the same way people today think of car insurance or electricity. They did not question its existence.
The only well known figure that opposed slavery in ancient times was SPARTACUS. Can you think of another? I cannot at the moment.

As I was going through the books my late father bought over the years in county sales was a book about 300 pages long, published in 1847 explaining in great detail how God created Negroes to serve as slaves to White people. It was chock full of Biblical quotations. There were a lot of passages in it that were underlined with an old fashioned ink pen.

The ‘Curse of Ham’: how people of faith used a story in Genesis to justify slavery

For nearly 500 years, priests and imams justified slavery on the basis of a misunderstood passage of the Bible.

Why were Black people cursed? Why, that is easy: the first Black person, Ham, was cursed by God because he stared at hs father's dick. Seriously, that is what was claimed.

Can any of us be certain that some ancestor of ours did not also stare at their father's dick?
How many men cannot claim that they have never seen their father's dicks?

So those who blame God for slavery are lying.

Trump apparently talked dirty while Biden was doing the dirty with staffers in the hallway.

Lefties cannot decide if Christians were not running the country when biblical laws influenced the foundational laws of America or if Christians were running the country when the slavery supporters bullied the opponents of slavery into accepting slavery at the outset of the nation.

Thank God Christians are not under the Jewish laws today.
