Jesus and Mo pointing out the way in which morality changes and evolves over time, what was acceptable in the 1st and 8th century usually isn't today. This fact is awkward for our religious brothers and sisters since they often claim that their holy books (written in such ancient times) were authored by a perfectly moral and omniscient being. Unfortunately for them there's a big contradiction inherent in this claim, i.e. that clearly these beings didn't realise slavery, misogyny and paedophilia (among other horrors) aren't good for the wellbeing of Human Beings, aka "immoral"?
If, on the other hand, you accept that these books and stories were authored (and plagiarized) by many people over many centuries and are entirely man-made (as opposed to women-made) then everything makes perfect sense.
