Morality comes from evolution processes in society, not from the biblical God, Yahweh.

"You cannot spell good without God" I'm confused on how you can spell a four letter word with three letters. I am dyslexic, so not the best speller, however I am good at math. Three does not equal four. I understand that the men that wrote the Constitution were deist and Christian but no mention to which god they were referring to, nor any mention of the Bible. John Atoms even said "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other", but no word of what religion. But perhaps you're right, maybe there was motivation from the Bible in the first draft of the constitution, Leaving out that women should be able to vote(Timothy 2:11-15) and that African-Americans votes are equal to everyone else's possibly due to the curse of Ham(for seeing his father naked). I was quoting the whole Bible for Jewish, Christians, and Catholics take on the Bible. However, for this debate I can quote the New Testament, either way there's plenty of in immoral teachings in there as well. Considering that the New Testament is all about human sacrifice but not only human sacrifice, killing God's own son/himself. I'm not too sure on the what Jesus is, I've been told that he is God but of course there is only one God but the Bible refers to Jesus as God's son. Because, God had that one night stand with that Mary chick. I know the options to forgiving mankind seems limited, but I'm sure an all-knowing God, would be able to think of a more moral way of forgiveness other than human sacrifice. But, I suppose that beats out mass genocide like the flood of Noah's Ark and killing of innocent babies, because the pharaoh did not do what God wanted. "Slavery in Bible is not the same slavery that has existed in past centuries. People were not enslaved based on race, or their nationality. People were enslaved based off of economics at the time. Slavery was a matter of social status. People sold themselves as slaves when they could not pay off of their debt. Doctors, lawyers and even politicians sold themselves into slavery to pay off their debt. The Bible is not a way to reform society but to salvation. The biblical point on issues is to approach from the inside out. A slave can be a brother of the Lord. Slave traders are seen as ungodly and sinful in the Bible. Slaves are actually referred to as "bondservants" and their are laws on their treatment." (Leviticus 25:44-46) States that you can buy slaves from other nations and from travelers. (Exodus 21:20-21) States that you were allowed to beat your slaves with rods male or female and if the slave dies the slave owner will be punished but if the slave gets up in a day or two then there shall be no punishment because the slave is the masters property. (Luke 12:47-48) States that slaves that do not do their work, shall be severely punished and those that do not know that they are doing wrong shell only be punished lightly. Even the new testament does not condemn slavery or harming your slaves. The definition of bond servant is someone who does not get paid, so yes technically you can call a slave a bondservant, but forgetting to mention that you beat and punish that bond servant if they do not do their work, also buying that bond servant. Either way you put it, it's a slave, especially when it comes to the old testament. I understand the Bible and a lot of Christians like to use wordplay or to call something literature to get around certain facts and unapproved moral teachings in the Bible. But, trying to work around slavery is a tough one for the Bible, there are just too many verses that tell us how to treat slaves and usually it's not good. "Morality comes from God because without God there is no basis for moral values. Without God we cannot be morally accountable for our actions. God serves as the reference point for our moral duties. The reason why we believe murder is wrong is because God willed it to be wrong. The objective morality is binding and valid whether you believe them or not. Social morality that you described is not independent of the way people think and believe because that would exemplify a subjective point of view." But God murdered lots of people in the Bible, with mass genocide and sending angels to destroy entire armies, Sudden and Gomorrah, even those who are innocent, are you suggesting that God did wrong? If the only reason we don't kill each other is because of God, then why do wolves not kill each other, why do piranhas not fight each other when going at a meal? Perhaps a lot of animals have heard the word of God? "Objective morality goes as followed, for an example we all agree that slavery was an evil practice in America. Even though the people who carried it out thought it was right. Objective morality is binding and is always valid. If morality is truly based off of society/nature then we are accidental beings and byproducts." I would even say that slavery was an evil practice in the Bible, I have given you my evidence in the above. Morality helps species, not only humans, have a greater chance for survival. Puranas are a great example, if they killed each other, they would have a smaller chance of catching prey, they have to work together. However, piranhas do not have a basis of morality, they have no god, nor do they have any laws(that I'm aware of) "The atheist view holds for an example that rape is wrong and was not advantageous to society so therefore in the course of human development was seen as taboo. But it does NOT prove that rape is really wrong. In your atheistic view there is nothing really wrong with rape. Without God there is no absolute right or wrong, bad or good that imposes themselves on our moral conscious. The thing is objective moral values do exist, and denying it, is no better than denying what we see the in physical world. Murder, theft, cruelty are not just socially unacceptable behavior but they are moral abominations." I don't think the words moral and God work together, when talking about the Bible. God approves of rape murder and pillage(Numbers 31:7-18), I'm going to continue to quote the old testament because I found this verse(Matthew 5:17) unless Christians want to go against the word of God and, Jesus. According to the New Testament the laws from the Old Testament still apply, Jesus did not come here to destroy the old laws. So according to the Bible there is nothing wrong with rape. The Bible makes no claim that rape is wrong, it actually encourages it. I can not talk for the atheistic view, there is no book that tell them to murder, rape, or how to treat slaves, or in other words how to act "moral" to please their invisible master. Atheist/agnostics, are more free to think on their own, no boundaries of texts. I can give you my on opinion on how rape and how it is wrong. Forcing another human being to do sexual acts against that person's will, violating their rights as human being. Even though the majority of the Bible does not considered women as people or up to man's standard(Timothy 2:11-15). But, people of non-Faith sees everyone as equals and with equal right as a person. (Deuteronomy 17:2-5) States that you should kill infidels and nonbelievers. But this contradicts the first constitutional amendment the freedom of speech and religion. When the Bible is quite clear that you shall not warship any other God for it is punishable by death. Again the old testament laws are not destroyed by Jesus Christ, they are for filled. There are plenty of verses in the new testament that are quite clear that you shall not abandon the Old Testament laws(Matthew 5:17). I would not suggest taking text for self interpretation(2 Peter 20-21)
