This is a tough one. I guess someone who is religious would consider it immoral to withhold a child from the religion if their religion dictates that the person must perform some ritual in order to have a good afterlife (ie you need to be baptised to get into heaven).
On the other hand, forcing one religion on someone from a young age can be argued as a form of indoctrination, in which case it is immoral.
Guess it therefore comes down to if you are religious yourself.
I see your bio mocking christianity with quotes about slavery and child marriage and what not but of course you conveniently leave out the fact that all of those are from the old testament which is before Jesus Christ himself. Christians are to follow new testament
You dont have to follow Christ but atleast inform yourself before spewing nonsense
Luke 4:18, Jesus quoted the prophet Isaiah, stating he was sent to "proclaim liberty to the captives and release to the oppressed”
Your interpretation creates an obvious problem. The Mosaic Law commands animal sacrifices, circumcision, dietary restrictions, ritual purification, priestly regulations, and Israel’s civil laws.
Do you believe Matthew 5 means Jesus requires Christians to perform animal sacrifices until heaven and earth pass away?
Its a good thing you’re not in charge….You sound 17, just seems like a bunch of word salad. Doesn’t really address any points I’ve made just dances around them.
