Trivia What is the most disturbing thing in the Bible that you have found as an atheist?

[plhbg1]

There are plenty, but this is one is pretty bad:

’Numbers 31:13-18-13-18

Moses, Eleazar, and all the leaders of the congregation went to meet the returning army outside the camp. Moses was furious with the army officers—the commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds—as they came back from the battlefield: “What’s this! You’ve let these women live! They’re the ones who, under Balaam’s direction, seduced the People of Israel away from GOD in that mess at Peor, causing the plague that hit GOD’s people. Finish your job: kill all the boys. Kill every woman who has slept with a man. The younger women who are vi̾rgins you can keep alive for yourselves.”

Kill everyone, except for the vi̾rgin girls. Keep them as se̾x slaves. This is pure ISIS. If you say that Bible is your source of morality, think what you are actually saying.

Sa question po ay this is the most disturbing thing in the Bible that I have found as a deist.

1. "In pain you shall bring forth children , yet your desire shall be for your husband , and he shall rule over you." (Exodus 20:17) - Kasalanan ni Eve dahil kinain nito ang forbidden fruit from tree of knowledge.

2. "Wives , be subject to your husbands as you are to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife just as Christ is the head of the church." (1 Corinthians 14:34-35)

3. "Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak and if they will learn any thing , let them ask their husbands at home." (1 Timothy 2:13-15)

4. "For Adam was formed first , then Eve; and Adam was not deceived , but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor. Yet she will be saved through childbearing , provided [she] continue in faith and love and holiness , with modesty." (Titus 2:3-5)

Kasalanan ng babae uli dahil si Eve ang una na deceived.

5. "Likewise , tell the older women to be reverent in behavior , not to be slanderers or slaves to drink; they are to teach what is good , so that they may encourage the young women to love their husbands , to love their children , to be self-controlled, chaste, good managers of the household , kind , being submissive to their husbands , so that the word of God may not be discredited." (1 Peter 3:1-7)

===============

6. "Wives , do not adorn yourselves outwardly by braiding your hair , and by wearing gold ornaments or fine clothing ; rather, let your adornment be the inner self with the lasting beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit. It was in this way long ago that the holy women who hoped in God used to adorn themselves by accepting the "authority" of their husbands. Thus Sarah obeyed Abraham and called him lord." (Revelation 14:1-4)

Social status and conduct behavior ng babae po sa Revelation 14:1-4. Anyway, si Sarah ay asawa ni "Abraham" and Sarah called him "lord" and so , in a literal sense , if ever sobra tayong religious and traditional and sobrang masunurin sa bible verse ay malamang , lahat ng husband(s) ng wife ay ang tawag sa kanila ay "lord".

Marami pa po and since nakakasakit sa ulo at nakaka-disturb. Malaya naman tayo umalis at mamili ng paniniwala dito kung gusto natin.

Remember, remember lang naman na prevailing ang social norms and culture ang pagiging subservient ng women to men po. Social norms ika nga.​
