The best thing you can do for yourself is to never stop learning, it's the same thing I'm trying to teach my kids. I was raised in a heavily conservative, evangelical church, so I grew up learning to never question, now that's all I do. Learning is fun!

It's similar to, and yes this is something I've actually seen, a Christian saying the criticism of their religion and Bible is Christianphobic. It's important to understand the difference between the criticism of a religion and bigotry towards a people group.

...for slavery, it absolutely does. In fact, not only does it advocate for it, it specifically gives rules for foreign slaves and indicates that one can beat their slave to within an inch of their life, so long as they don't die. And sure, you can say that's the Old Testament and the...
