The bible is an inconsistent mess that can "justify" whatever someone thinks god wants.
Christianity is a death cult. Baseless claims should not be accepted or tolerated, all life depends on the reality that defines us. Magical thinking is deadly. Humanity must mature or it will self-destruct.
In other words, please stop defending christianity at all. They'll kill you and tell everyone you deserved it. They'll go through the whole narcissist's prayer over your corpse: we didn't do it; if we did, it wasn't that bad; if it was, you brought it on yourself.
Take a stand for truth and life. Thank you.
