 Ah the "Law of God" huh? Which God? Let me guess, the god of Abraham right? Cool, people should definitely obey the supposed words of an invisible unproven deity worshipped thousands of years ago by desert nomads. Religious texts, written by humans thousands of years ago, are infallible and should be obeyed. We should probably respect those who speak on the behalf of said God right?

No wonder you support forced birth. After all, it's God's will that women should be punished with pregnancy for sex after Eve's sin of eating the fruit so why should they be allowed to choose not to go through with God's punishment if they have sex?

It's God's will that women be subservient to men and be silent, maybe the Muslims have it right in turning their women into silent walking pieces of black cloth.

Slavery and rape are a-okay to God, might as well legalize those as well (so long as you make sure to pay your rape victim's father to purchase his property that you tarnished). Let's stone people for wearing mixed cloth, eating shellfish, or for simply loving someone the desert nomads speaking for God didn't approve. Don't forget if you beat your slave within an inch of their life merciful God has instructed you to let them rest a whole 3 days before you put them back to work!

You literally make me sick. You do not believe in evidence based reasoning of the real world, you believe vile things and claim the moral high ground when you absolutely do not have it. Ridiculous. Your beliefs are shameful and you should be ashamed.
