I'm racing against death and Satan. I want eternal ife and never will I stopped looking at God grandiosity and his creation.

he is like light, shining from afar that blinds the seraphim so they cover, and those who are holier get closer to that light. Me must be pure, so I have decided to make the Bible the main book to live life by. Everything else becomes secondary. But this Knowledge's I'm learning in Academics is pretty good even If I struggle. I never paid attention in school. I have a load of things I have to learn. Knowledge is food for thought. I have a few things up my sleeve I won't tell people. Until I leave my mark in history.

"The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully.”

@BlueSkyKing Slavery is not bad. slavery is bad when you use harsh punishments. No different from disciplining a child.
@IsawDDevil Slaves are property that can be inherited and are allowed to be beaten, just as long they don’t die in two days.

@BlueSkyKing In the Bible, slave rights depended heavily on ethnicity, gender, and how a person entered servitude. Hebrew servants (often indentured due to poverty) had the right to automatic freedom after six years, protection from physical abuse that resulted in freedom if injured, and inclusion in religious rests like the Sabbath. Foreign slaves had fewer protections but were still granted asylum rights and protection from murder.Hebrew Slaves (Indentured Servants)Term limits: Must be freed in the seventh year or during the Year of Jubilee.Bodily integrity: If a master struck a slave and broke a tooth or caused permanent physical damage, the slave won immediate freedom.Safety from return: Israelites were forbidden from returning a runaway foreign slave to their master, commanding instead that they be given safe harbor.Capital Protections and RestrictionsMurder prohibition: Killing a slave intentionally was a crime punishable by death or legal avenging.Kidnapping ban: Kidnapping a person to sell them into slavery carried the death penalty.Marriage and family rights: Female servants sold by their fathers had specific marital guarantees, food, and clothing rights; failure to provide these meant freedom without debt.Foreign SlavesChattel status: Slaves from surrounding nations could be kept as permanent property and inherited by family members.Cruelty limitations: While treated as property, outright lethal violence against them was still legally punished, and they were required to be given the Sabbath off to rest.
