34. And again, none of those are unique to the Bible, nor did they originate there...

Edited on Tue Aug-02-11 08:54 PM by Humanist_Activist

that's part of the point, any "universal" themes are there because they talk about HUMAN experiences, we are all the same species after all, with the same basic wants and needs, the fact that the Bible contains such stories isn't indicative of anything more than its authors being human.

ON EDIT: Wait a second, rereading your post, where does genocide fit in with "fighting the oppressor"?
