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.

Scary insight into the mind of a cultist when they tell you what their desires are.

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."

I love Penn Gillette's answer to this:

"I've raped and murdered all the people I wanted to."

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.

Historically everyone else is an uncivilized savage, from the point of view of the Christians.

"Yes!" stabs and then rapes them

surprised Pikachu face at the response to their asinine rebuttal

ask a stupid question...

Not every culture, but look at the Aztecs man!

If I'm forced to choose, I'll take Tenochtitlan over Madrid any day. The Aztecs killed far, far fewer than the Spanish Conquestadors.

Why you wouldn’t survive the Aztec Empire. I’d take my chances with the conquistadors.
