I won’t “give it a shot”. I don’t believe in arguing people into believing - you believe or you don’t. If you have as much information as you do and don’t believe, I’m not likely to make a difference.

I will say I’m uncomfortable with some incidents in the Bible. The harsh lives before Christ, where slavery could be a mercy because the alternative was mass killing, is unfathomable to me.

I am grateful to not live in those times, but I wasn’t argued into believing, and you won’t be either. You know as much as you need to.
