Genocide instructions. Deuteronomy 20:16 Only in the cities of these peoples that the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance, you shall not leave alive anything that breathes. |
GENOCIDE. The bible contains many stories of full scale genocide and destruction of entire civilisations. Below are a few passages. Please confirm these scriptures from your bible. |
2 SAMUEL 13 VERSES 10-17. AMNON AND TAMAR [INCEST] 10 And Amnon said unto Tamar, Bring the meat into the chamber, that I may eat of thine hand. And Tamar took the cakes which she had made, and brought them into the chamber to Amnon her brother. 11 And when she had brought them unto him to eat, he took hold of her, and said unto her, Come lie with me, my sister. 12 And she answered him, Nay, my brother, do not force me; for no such thing ought to be done in Israel: do not thou this folly. 13 And I, whither shall I cause my shame to go? and as for thee, thou shalt be as one of the fools in Israel. Now therefore, I pray thee, speak unto the king; for he will not withhold me from thee. 14 Howbeit he would not hearken unto her voice: but, being stronger than she, forced her, and lay with her. 15 Then Amnon hated her exceedingly; so that the hatred wherewith he hated her was greater than the love wherewith he had loved her. And Amnon said unto her, Arise, be gone. 16 And she said unto him, There is no cause: this evil in sending me away is greater than the other that thou didst unto me. But he would not hearken unto her. 17 Then he called his servant that ministered unto him, and said, Put now this woman out from me, and bolt the door after her. |
Lot and his daughters [INCEST] GENESIS CHAPTER 19.verses 30-36. 30 Lot and his two daughters left Zoar and settled in the mountains, for he was afraid to stay in Zoar. He and his two daughters lived in a cave. 31 One day the older daughter said to the younger, “Our father is old, and there is no man around here to give us children—as is the custom all over the earth. 32 Let’s get our father to drink wine and then sleep with him and preserve our family line through our father.” 33 That night they got their father to drink wine, and the older daughter went in and slept with him. He was not aware of it when she lay down or when she got up. 34 The next day the older daughter said to the younger, “Last night I slept with my father. Let’s get him to drink wine again tonight, and you go in and sleep with him so we can preserve our family line through our father.” 35 So they got their father to drink wine that night also, and the younger daughter went in and slept with him. Again he was not aware of it when she lay down or when she got up. 36 So both of Lot’s daughters became pregnant by their father. |
Genesis chapter 38. This chapter is a mixture of sex,misogyny, deceit, and incest. GENESIS CHAPTER 38. The incestuous story of Judah,and his daughter in law Tamar. What a horrible and immoral story. |
More misogyny. Deuteronomy chapter 25 verses 11-12. 11 ¶ When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the one draweth near for to deliver her husband out of the hand of him that smiteth him, and putteth forth her hand, and taketh him by the secrets: 12 Then thou shalt cut off her hand, thine eye shall not pity her. |
Leviticus chapter 19 verse 20. And whosoever lieth carnally with a woman, that is a bondmaid, betrothed to an husband, and not at all redeemed, nor freedom given her; she shall be scourged; they shall not be put to death, because she was not free |
WOMEN ARE TO BE SILENT. Timothy chapter 2 verse 12. 12 I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man;[a] she must be quiet. |
Misogyny and abuse of women in the Bible. MENSTRUATING WOMEN ARE UNCLEAN. LEVITICUS CHAPTER 15 VERSE 20 And everything on which she lies during her menstrual impurity shall be unclean. Everything also on which she sits shall be unclean.” |
You are free to make your own research on how the bible encourages slaves and slavery. I have quoted various books from the bible and you are free to confirm if these passages are true or false. I also want you to bear in mind that Jesus talks about a lot of thing but is not quoted to once speak against slaves or slavery. Good day. |
And another. Luke 12:47-48 47 “The servant who knows the master’s will and does not get ready or does not do what the master wants will be beaten with many blows. 48 But the one who does not know and does things deserving punishment will be beaten with few blows. From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked. |
And another. Titus 2:9-10 9 Teach slaves to be subject to their masters in everything, to try to please them, not to talk back to them, 10 and not to steal from them, but to show that they can be fully trusted, so that in every way they will make the teaching about God our Savior attractive. |
Another. Colossians 3:22 22 Slaves, obey your earthly masters in everything; and do it, not only when their eye is on you and to curry their favor, but with sincerity of heart and reverence for the Lord. |
Another. Ephesians 6:5 5 Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear, and with sincerity of heart, just as you would obey Christ. |
Other notable passages supporting slavery in the Bible. Colossians 4:1 1 Masters, provide your slaves with what is right and fair, because you know that you also have a Master in heaven. |
How to enslave people and those to be enslaved. Exodus 21:20-21 20 ¶ And if a man smite his servant, or his maid, with a rod, and he die under his hand; he shall be asurely punished. 21 Notwithstanding, if he acontinue a day or two, he shall not be bpunished: for he is his money. |
Peter encourages slaves to accept slavery no matter how harsh. It is there in the Bible. Does that quote from Peter loom like a condemnation of slavery in any form or shape? The bible even tells how to enslave people and those to be enslaved. Exodus chapter 21 verses 7-11. 7 “When a man lsells his daughter as a slave, she shall not go out as the male slaves do. 8 If she does not please her master, who has designated her2 for himself, then he shall let her be redeemed. He shall have no right to sell her to a foreign people, since he has broken faith with her. 9 If he designates her for his son, he shall deal with her as with a daughter. 10 If he takes another wife to himself, he shall not diminish her food, her clothing, or mher marital rights. 11 And if he does not do these three things for her, she shall go out for nothing, without payment of money. |
Bible passages approving Slavery. 1st Peter chapter 2 verse 18. 18 Slaves, in reverent fear of God submit yourselves to your masters, not only to those who are good and considerate, but also to those who are harsh. |
THE BIBLE ON SLAVERY. we all agree that slavery is bad and morally unjust. From this premise it will be assumed a religious book would condemn such an action. Does the bible in any shade or form condem this abominable act? No in fact the bible supports slavery of human beings in all forms and even goes further to tell you how to enslave people. Through out the new testament Jesus Christ never for once condemns slavery. Christ performs many noble actions,gives a lot of advise on how to be a good person and how to attain the kingdom of heaven but does he for once condemn slavery? No he does not. What about Peter his disciple? Does he condemn slavery? No he does not! |
The bible claims to be a religious book. In this thread I will seek to find out how true this claim is with quoted passages from specific books,chapters and verses. You are therefore free to keep your Bible handy as the thread proceeds. Thank you. |
MaxInDHouse:I will wait for you to open a thread claiming the bible to be a good book so that I can expose your lies and air you out for what you are. Remember to tag me. |
Dtruthspeaker:Keep burying your head like an ostrich as usual. The problem I always have with Christians is refusal to see errors in the Bible and rationality explain these errors. You guys would rather turn a blind eye to all the contradictions and evil teaching in the Bible and attempt to explain it away in a circular kind of way. See no evil and hear no evil. Once again I repeat the bible does not condemn slavery and promotes misogyny, genocide, human sacrifice, rape,mass murder,lies,incest,destruction of entire civilisations amongst other evil deeds. That is why so many pastors and religious leaders are able to engage in paedophilia and sexual abuse of their female members. Look,I know it is hard for you to accept these things but deep down in your heart you know all what I wrote is true. However I don't want to derail this thread so I challenge you to open your own thread and tag me so we can quote Bible passages and critically examine the bible. |
MaxInDHouse:You are a fraud! I wrote out what is not good in the Bible and you left that and started going off tangent and became a medical doctor/shrink. I know your target as usual is to derail this thread but I wouldn't give you and the other religious nut jobs that pleasure. If you are ready for a debate on the .bad elements of the Christian Bible open a thread and tag me so I can expose you properly. |
SIRTee15:You have started again. When we give you evidence, you bury your head in the sand like an ostrich and begin giving circular arguments and then when that doesn't work you resort to insults. I am not going to join you in the mud where you belong. Refute what I wrote and I will give you passages direct from the bible. |
Dtruthspeaker:Answering to the emboldened while ignoring the rest..... The bible is a book full of contradictions celebrating: Slavery,misogyny, rape,genocide, human sacrifice, destruction of entire civilisations,incest,and lies amongst some many other crimes. |
Dtruthspeaker:You have started engaging in your circular way of thinking that everything in the Bible is good. It's your right as an adherent to reason so. I grant you that however the bolded statement is where I disagree with you. Please can you empirically prove this your bolded statement? Can you prove the existence of this your incinerator and where is it based? Is this fire in the sky or deep in the bowels of the earth? Or is this fire in outer space? I wish to be enlightened. |
MaxInDHouse:I have posted the facts. It is left for you to check the facts if you want to or you may choose to bury your head in the sand like an ostrich as a typical Christian. The choice is yours but the truth is the truth. |
MaxInDHouse:I repeat, You are a fraud. I haven't changed my mind. |
MaxInDHouse:Wtf are you on about? What I posted are facts that can be verified. Did Marcion of Sinope exist or not? Did Marcion of Sinope create a canonical bible before the Romans and the Catholic Church declared it heresy, burned the books and banished Marcion before recreating the CURRENT bible. Read up. These facts are there for your enlightenment and information.
|
SIRTee15:I suggest you start your search from Marcion of Sinope. He was the first man/theologian to create a bible before the current council of Nicaea bible you are currently clutching on to. The problem with Christians is your refusal to read and do research and in cases where you research your refusal to recognise the truth even if it slapped you in the face. Your circular form of reasoning prevents you from accepting any truth contrary to" the truth in the Bible ". For your information before the council of Nicaea, Marcion compiled and created his own bible and his own philosophy of religion in which there were two different gods. The evil wicked inferior demiurge god of the old testament and the loving superior god of the new testament and the father of Jesus. The church elders and the Romans declared this man's bible heresy and his bible and books were destroyed and burned by the Roman government of the day and the current bible created with more books. Read up. These things are all over the Internet if I am telling lies but the problem is you reason in a circular way. Any thing in your Roman created bible is true,no matter how ludicrous it sounds. Good luck. |
jaephoenix:The problem with most Christians is their attempts to believe anything/everything that is written in the Bible, no matter how ludicrous it is. They believe that once it is in the Bible it MUST be true. So they rationalise every irrational story trying to convince themselves it is true. It is just a circular way of thinking. |
SIRTee15:To people like you,all you aim for is to according to you,"Bury you just like I did....." I am not interested in that but to point out facts and the folly of your thought process when you decide to suspend rationality and assume the emotional toga of faith. The point is that the bible is an amalgamation of disjointed plagiarised myths cobbled together by men/scribes and not the words of an omniscient deity. These books were cobbled together in a haphazard way by the Romans (who had adopted Christianity as a state religion) and the Catholic Church at certain Christian Council meetings where doctrines were adopted. Doctrines that did not meet the agenda of the Roman government and the Catholic priests were jettisoned, while those that matched the agenda were adopted as canonical. That is why the bible is packed full of apparent contradictory statements and philosophy. Once you understand this simple fact the problem of contradiction in the Bible is clearly understandable. And a subtle reminder,you did not bury anyone on any thread. Your problem is once people refused to see things from your jaundiced viewpoint,you resorted to abuse and everyone just vacated the thread for you,so as to avoid descending to the level you wanted them to descend to-the mud.
