I'm not sure the Bible even said 'This planet is centre of the universe.' nor did it tell you to persecute people different to you, it told you to care for everyone. People decided to do all that. the commandments like 'Thou shalt not commit adultery.' or 'Thou shalt not covet...' something is basic for 'don't be a dick/be jealous'. They are the basis for modern social morals, not definitive, our own social enlightenment is changing many things but we still don't kill, steal, cheat or covet our neighbours ass. |
no they are not, those rules are alot older, and some animals have the same rules. its basic social behavior, not morals or ethics behind those rules.
people maybe decided to hunt down gays because they fear to end like sodom?
the good thing is, most people are better people than those who wrote the bible.
