    Christian reaction:

    Oh yeah, so you are allowed to just run around raping and killing blah blah blah.

    Yes, because that’s how every single culture worked before Christianity became a thing.
    /s

        I use variations of that all the time.

        If the threat of eternal damnation is the only thing stopping you, you’re a bad person.

      Christian cultures famously never do any of that of course. “noo that was the past, muh context” looks at USA.

      Dang it’s almost like the root cause is power seeking humans are bastards.

      Genociding some Caananites for example and then retroactively writing religious fables about it after the fact is an obvious red flag that universally gets ignored.

        My response is usually, “If the only thing that keeps you from doing those things is your belief in God, then that says a lot about you as a person.”
