[QUOTE]Originally posted by TSN: [QB] You keep saying "just because Revered Biblical Figure [i]X[/i] did Atrocity [i]Y[/i], and there's no recorded condemnation of it, that doesn't mean it was approved". But that makes no sense. Your claim is that the bible is divinely inspired. In effect, Yahweh was the editor who made sure that what he wanted written got written. So why would he inspire someone to write "Solomon was a really great guy who fucked an ass-load of women."? If he wanted people to know that he disapproved, he would have inspired something more like "Solomon was a pretty good guy, but he sure had trouble keeping his hands off women. But, other than that, he was okay.". Also, your mantra of "Mosaic law is for Jews only, and I'm not a Jew" is nonsensical. If you believe that those laws were stated by a god, and that that god is the ruler of Everything, then you can't say that certain people have to obey his laws, and others don't. Otherwise, you could never tell another person what they can and cannot morally do. If I killed someone, and you told me murder was immoral, I could say "Maybe your god told [i]you[/i] not to kill people, but he never said it to [i]me[/i], so that rule only applies to you.".
