    Why should your morality be more important then mine? Morality is a deeply personal thing and a thing of the times.

    Until 150 years ago it was moral to enslave people of different colour.
    In some parts of the world it is still moral to withhold marriage rights to same sex couples.

    so do you believe everyone was immoral until 150 years ago (participation in and tolerance for slavery) or do you believe we are immoral today for denying the right to own slaves (as allowed by religious texts)?

    So then everyone before the Quran was immoral? literally not a single human being existed before the Quran was written who was moral? Or were they immoral without knowing it because nobody had told them "slavery is wrong" yet? That seems profoundly unjust.

    It's also important to note that according to Surah Al-An'am 6:112, any human who rebels against God and dedicated themselves to leading others astray is classified as a demon.

    So I guess enslaving an atheist activist like Richard Dawkins is morally acceptable according to you? Since he is, according to the Quran, a demon?
