[QUOTE="Lenny3, post: 66144021, member: 356807"] First of all, no ... slavery is slavery. You can't say that just because the Bible sanctioned it, it was different than slavery in America. And I'm not sidetracking. I'm using a book that I know you're familiar with to illustrate that morals are subjective dependent on the society you are in. I think that raping any young person (male or female) is morally wrong. I know that it has been accepted in early histroy though ... which goes back to my conclusion that morals are subjective. You're moving the goal posts. This is a good question, and I don't have a good answer for it. I look at it this way: I was brought up in a religious household by very loving parents. They were very moral people (as far as I can tell) but were no more moral than my family and I are (secular household). I did not derive my morals from a God, but rather my own personal judgment.
