Were you defending slavery when you were a Christian?
No I was telling lies about the fact that god prescribes slavery by obfuscating about indentured servitude.
Slavery has been defended on this forum by xtians many times. So has infanticide. Theism turns some people into moral retards.

Cofty: How do you know what brings happiness to other creatures?
Where did I mention happiness? Don't strawman me or we are finished.
Making somebody a slave doesn't promote their well being. Kidnapping them and raping them doesn't either.
Murdering babies en masse definitely doesn't promote anybodies well being.
How come we all know this but fundi xtians don't?

It's such a relief as a former theist to no longer have to defend the indefensible

I don't approve of slavery, kidnapping, rape or infanticide - Iriddle
God and Jesus do.

SB - I would welcome an honest discussion of morality but if you are going to evade challenges by taking refuge in presuppositionalism I won't waste my time. It is deeply dishonest and intellectual cowardice.

It's not worth trying to converse with pre-suppositionalists. They will literally gaslight you and expect you take their ravings seriously while refusing to engage with any evidence of any sort.
Their ignorance (of which they are frequently proud) is exceeded only by their arrogance.

How do you determine right from wrong
Christians pretend to determine it by reference to god's words and actions. This leaves them having to approve of slavery, kidnap, rape and infanticide.
Morality by divine fiat is no morality at all.
In reality they mostly get their morals in the same way as unbelievers. From approving those things that promote the well being of conscious creatures. Then they superimpose god-talk over the top of that which leads to impossible contradictions. Socrates saw the dilemma when he posed is famous dilemma to Euthyphro.

Iriddle - the accusation against you god isn't that he permitted humans to take slaves but that he specifically taught his own people to take slaves; to treat other humans as cahttel.
Curiously the god and father of Jesus has the morals of an Iron Age goat herder.

what does anything amount to in the end if there’s no afterlife - DD
If there is no after life then this life is very precious. It is myth of life after death that allows christians to justify their god's infanticide and Muslims to fly planes into buildings.
