We all love and appreciate futuristic thinking, but the line has to get drawn at a point lest it becomes more ridiculous than the religious notions that ''we'' so deride

Tell me about it!

"When men fight with one another, and the wife of the one draws near to rescue her husband from the hand of him who is beating him, and puts out her hand and seizes him by the private parts, then you shall cut off her hand." Deuteronomy 25:11-12

"Ye shall not round the corners of your heads." Leviticus 19:27

"Now therefore, kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known man intimately. But all the girls who have not known man intimately, spare for yourselves." Numbers 31:17-18

"No one whose testicles are crushed or whose penis is cut off shall be admitted to the assembly of the LORD." Deuteronomy 23:1

These are such accurate and important pieces of guidance. Sharper than bullets. Thank god for the bible. Lowly human minds could never come up with something like this on their own.

Have you actually studied the Bible, Do you understand anything about the judicial, moral, and ceremonial laws meant for the isrealites? Do you know the neaming of the new convenant?
Have you actually taken time to study what you hate so much?

You're missing the point entirely (or perhaps purposely evading it). Step back and try to be objective.

Those rules, regardless of the context, are clearly the makings of human minds that wanted to create governing laws for their societies, but were extremely limited by the lack of information available in their time. NOT the makings of any supreme deity with advanced knowledge on the workings of human behavior & social science.

Why is it that the rules in developed countries today are LIGHTYEARS ahead of the rules layed out in the bible? Why is it that you have to say "those were just for the Israelites because blah blah blah"? Perfect, flawless, & reasonable laws do not have to be defended by excuses. The bible was made up by 1st century humans, which is why it contains so much ridiculous 1st century barbarism.
