"When a man sells his daughter as a slave, she will not be freed at the end of six years as the men are. If she does not please the man who bought her, he may allow her to be bought back again." - Exodus 21: 7-8

Context explains it, as with all things people try to use to dunk on the contents of the good book. But the book is spiritually discerned and those who have only the spirit of the enemy in them will fail to comprehend as a general rule!

What's the context that explains advocating selling your daughter into sexual slavery?

It's not that I'm not willing to think. It's that there's no context in which slavery, much less selling your daughter into sexual slavery is okay.

None at all.

So I wonder how you justify it to yourself.

I take it from your response you've got nothing either.

So you think that there's a context in which selling your daughter into sexual slavery is okay.

And you're not prepared to enter into a discussion of it, because there's no way anyone could argue that.

This an example of the evil of christianity. You need to engage your brain when thinking about ethics. And you need to do better.

Or maybe the Israelites didn't know the difference between their own laws and God's, so they lumped them all together?

politicians in general are not interested in ethics or responsibility
