Does Christianity work as a moral system?>Do not resist evil>Turn the other cheek>If someone sues you, give them your house>If a hobo begs you, give him your wallet>Give away all your possessions>Being poor is blessed>Love your enemies>Forgive your murderers>We are all worthless sinners>Submit to Caesar>Never question>Wisdom is bad>Blind faith is good>Trust the plan
>>18025286Christianity empowers its people by vesting in them God's authority, so much of Jesus's advice was about how not to be a shitty God. If you remove that context then the advice is suicidal.
>>18025296Based and Mormonpilled
>>18025286>>Do not resist evilWhere does it say this?
>>18025369>when you're deadno, that was not what it ever meant
>>18025286>doesn't condemn slavery>doesn't condemn child marriage>doesn't condemn rape>doesn't condemn racismNope.
>>18025286The point is to resist evil and trust in God to dole out judgment. It's not a vending machine where you can cash in for immediate results, it's all part of an intricate plan. To do good is the whole point and not to spread your cheeks to get eternally raped.
>>18025460Nobody has ever given me a coherent definition of racism, except one that they were also guilty of despite claiming to be against it.To this day I still don't know what this term is exactly supposed to mean and I don't know why there isn't one single and unchanging definition being used. It seems to just be a nonsense junk term.
>>18025286>Do not resist evilClarification: if it's done to you. On the most basic level, it means do not return evil for evil.>Give away all your possessionsIn the long run, it does make sense to do this, since you will lose all your earthly possessions anyway upon death. That is indeed one of the teachings you get from the Bible, although it doesn't matter whether you've done that if you aren't saved.>We are all worthless sinnersThe Bible doesn't say "worthless," but it does tell us to be humble. It means we are not the most important thing in the world. That's not the same as being worthless however.>Submit to CaesarMore like: Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's, and unto God what is God's.>Never questionThis one doesn't seem to make sense. Can you clarify?>Wisdom is badFalse, this is not a teaching of Christianity.>Blind faith is goodYou didn't specify what one is putting faith in. Everyone ultimately is putting faith in something. It's unavoidable. The question is what.
>>18025371Matthew 5:39But I say to you, Do not resist the one who is evil. But if anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also.
>>18025296>Christianity empowers its people by vesting in them God's authorityThe opposite is that is true, the purpose of christkikery is actually to strip its cattle of any authority, and leave that to a jewish tranny that died 2000 years ago and its representatives the hook nosed tribe
>>18025577Sounds cucked
The fact that we are all sinners levels the social hierarchy. Even the beggar is redeemable.
>>18025566>took more offense to racism being condemned rather than rape or slaveryLeast satanic and spiteful /pol/tranny
>>18025674At least those make sense as ideas and I know how not to do them.
>>18025589The context is that it's advocating against eye for an eye morality
>>18025460>doesn't condemn slavery Read Philemon>doesn't condemn child marriagehttps://www.gotquestions.org/child-marriage.html>doesn't condemn rapeYes it does. The Bible condemns rape whenever it is mentioned.>doesn't condemn racismWhat >>18025566 said.
>>18025590>noahidism is christianityYou're either a jew or have let jews explain christianity to you.
>>18025286Yes. /thread
>>18025286Not trying to put God in a box, please. Your thoughts are not my thoughts. Also, civilization is a thing to help people become saved, anyways.
>>18025286>Does Christianity work as a moral system?They only have one moral."Follow whatever god says">Does god say something about this? If yes, then I know the answer. If no, then I dunno.That's not a moral system. Divine Command isn't morality. It's might makes right.
>>18026317>Philemon"Read the guy who disagrees with what YHWH and Jesus says.">https://www.gotquestions.org/child-marriage.htmlDeuteronomy 21:10–14https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Deuteronomy%2021%3A10%E2%80%9314&version=NRSVUE>Female Captives>10 “When you go out to war against your enemies and the Lord your God hands them over to you and you take them captive, 11 suppose you see among the captives a beautiful woman whom you desire and want to marry, 12 and so you bring her home to your house: she shall shave her head, pare her nails, 13 discard her captive’s garb, and remain in your house a full month mourning for her father and mother; after that you may go in to her and be her husband, and she shall be your wife. 14 But if you are not satisfied with her, you shall let her go free and certainly not sell her for money. You must not treat her as a slave, since you have dishonored her.Numbers 31: 17-18https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Numbers%2031%3A%2017-18&version=NRSVUE>17 Now therefore, kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known a man by sleeping with him. 18 But all the young girls who have not known a man by sleeping with him, keep alive for yourselves.And directly from your own link:>"However, the Bible does not state a particular marriageable age for either men or women."Cope all you want, the girls weren't 16-18. Not even Mary.1/2
>>18026317>The Bible condemns rape whenever it is mentioned.You're not going to like finding out that YHWH caused it to happen.2 Samuel 12:11–12https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2%20Samuel%2012%3A11%E2%80%9312&version=NRSVUE>11 Thus says the Lord: I will raise up trouble against you from within your own house, and I will take your wives before your eyes and give them to your neighbor, and he shall lie with your wives in broad daylight. 12 For you did it secretly, but I will do this thing before all Israel and in broad daylight.”And then a few chapters later YHWH does it, and we know it was rape because of what David did after. He didn't stone them to death for adultery, but kept them in what amounts to the side house of a mansion.Also, rape is a property crime, because women are property in the OT.2/2
