I am not saying we should kill kids. I am just saying it's just to easy to judge people of other cultures without walking in their shoes.

That is a very good point. I think we are far too quick to judge past cultures according to our modern way of thinking without complete understanding of the situation.

I think you're trying to have your cake and eat it, too. If the Bible's commands are relevant today, then they should be judged by the standards of today. If the Bible is the product of a different, "less civilized" time and shouldn't be judged harshly because of this, then it's unreasonable to ask modern people to follow it.

These criticisms of the Bible don't exist in a vacuum; they're responses to Christian claims that the Bible is still "the good book" today and that it's commandments are still binding and relevant. I mean, nobody takes issue with people criticizing Aztec beliefs and practices, but that's because nobody is still trying to push Aztec religion on everyone.

Depends, are atheists authoritative behind their reasoning for not believing in any Gods?

It's terrible that abuse ever happens. It's sickening that some people (in this case the "news" site) can be so heavily biased against a very small and statistically insignificant group to paint them as mainstream.

I agree. If they were atheists, they wouldn't talk about how all atheists are horrid people.
