@Dafunkdoc_Unlimited, why do you condone slavery in the bible?

Argue about contradictions in a fairy tale brehs.

The fact that you think any non-capitalism system must be purely marxist shows your depth on this topic. It's like me telling you to get off Hayek's dikk

It's either collectivist or not.

Capitalism with reasonable controls is socialism

Uh...no it's not.

Socialism is Cuba.

Socialism is The Soviet Union or Maos China.

Mixed economies are one thing but pure socialism it's not.

Breh, are you SERIOUS? Let's review in more context.



Breh, it may be a "parable" as you say, but look what he's telling them. Look at verse 40, in particular. "You must also be ready because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.”

Even if this is couched within a parable, it's also a WARNING. He is warning his disciples that they need to be on their best behavior at all times because they will never know when he is gonna show up and be able to see what they're doing.

Then the fun part. Jesus goes into a parable about slaves. Read closely. What message is this parable meant to portray? Who is being compared to who? "The master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he is not aware of. He will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the unbelievers."

If you read this entire chapter in context, then you realize that Jesus is comparing himself to a slave master! The message of this chapter is essentially "Don't get out of line because you never know when I'm gonna be watching, just like slaves who try to screw around behind their masters' backs and end up cut to pieces and beaten"

So what if it is a parable? Parables don't refer to "fake" things. He used the example of the slave master because it was so common and easy to understand, that his disciples could easily relate to it. Why not point to something else if you wanted to illustrate a point? The fact that it is a parable SUPPORTS the idea that this was going on; it does NOT refute it. And the fact that Jesus compares HIMSELF to the slave master shows that he himself doesn't even condemn the idea of the master owning and beating slaves, so of course the Bible author certainly doesn't either.

What you got now, Patches O'Houlihan?

I'm glad you're here to point out how fukking absurd that c00n @Dafunkdoc_Unlimited is.

You're just as bad as he is. You also condone slavery. If you love Amerikkka, then you're cosigning slavery. Amerikkka exists because of slavery. If you love something built from evil, you approve of that evil

Not quite A mixed economy isn't necessarily socialism, or market socialism for example.

It's either collectivist or not.

no, it's not you simplistic fool

By the way you are either purposefully trolling or utterly delusional if you think Cuba, the soviets or mao's China was socialism. Communistic,with some aspects of capitalism/fascism, sure, but "pure socialism"?! you fool!

 

[the cac mamba]

That wouldn't be 'slavery' according to YOUR definition, now would it?
​

The ANE definition of the term =/= YOUR definition of the term so you need to clarify what YOU mean by the term in this question.

[wet landscapes]

you know, even if the bible disappeared tomorrow, christians would still believe and god and jesus and shyt
attacking shady stuff in the bible to prove that christianity is hypocritical is kinda pointless
I don't think anyone has turned christian from thinking how sound and logical the bible is lol

 

[Dafunkdoc_Unlimited]

What I find really hilarious about this thread:

The atheists and critics put great importance on the text and are mad that I don't see it like they do........just like theists!!!!!!!

Your interpretation is critically flawed due to eisegesis.

Ask yourself this question: What is the central theme of the entire Book from Genesis to Revelation?​

Don't do 99% of the things that modern America is all about

Including not having slaves. The book clearly says we should be enslaving
