Using the picture of Sue Johanson as the Christian throwing her hands up is really jarring. talksexwithsue (dot) com. She is a registered nurse that opened the first birth control clinic in Canada and for years she was the host of the advice call in show, "The Sunday Night Sex Show." Not really a poster woman for someone who just accepts things without questioning them.

@Everstruggling Thanks for the feedback, I thought it was just a stock image. I'll be changing the image and reuploading to Vimeo, however YouTube does not yet allow videos to be replaced.

Um... I agree with your whole, "refute the bible as nonsense" thing but um.... that "do unto others" thing, ain't in the bible!

[Discern4]

@webadage "that "do unto others" thing, ain't in the bible!"

Why do you say that?

[Andytheantiathiest]

Fail

@Andytheantiathiest Wow.

Just goes to show us how thick Xtians can be when it comes to showing them their own holy book being full of contradictions, silliness and all out severe violence, and then they continue to believe it is god's word. If so, the guy is severely lacking in intelligence or memory, nevermind omnipotence, omniscience, omnipresence! The bible shouldn't be available to anyone under 18 and should have a label warning the reader of it's adult material including murder, genocide, fratricide, incest etc.

In brief, yahweh is an arsehole and christians are full of shit. (Sorry about the language )

@ThePuppyTurtle Now your challenge is invalid as few slaves have ever been literate, but I don't recall saying this was something that happened, just saying the slavery would not be immoral on the part of the person behind the slavery if he knew this to be the case, (Unless a better action was available that helped the person more but it may be that there is not enough money etc. to feed the person without their Labor.)

@VanDammesCokeDealer The Level of Hatred in this comment compels me to ask: "You mad bro?" And I can now outline a POSSIBLE Scenario in which slavery could be better. Imagine a young child starving in Africa, he is an orphan, he is going to die in days, then, while he is out looking for food, he is captured and sold to a very rich family as a slave. Now he has food, water, shelter, and ends up marrying and having 3 Children.

Anyone who tries to justify these verses is a pathetic, immoral piece of shit. I fucking hate apologists, they're some of the most disgusting people who have ever walked the earth.

[VanDammesCokeDealer]

@ThePuppyTurtle Fuck you, you apologetic, fucktarded, ignorant sack of shit. No one has ever been "better off" in slavery. Try and find ONE single instance of an enslaved person ever saying they were thankful for being enslaved because they were better off; you won't because it's possibly one of the most vile things people have ever done to one another. Jesus Christ, you're a disgusting human being.

@Discern4 I figured it was unintentional. I would have thought it was stock if I didn't know who she was. Just wanted to give her credit.  Just found your channel today btw. Love it, subscribed.
