video description said:
The apologetics for this is infuriating. It’s terrifying that modern - seemingly civilized people - so nonchalantly offer these horrid defenses. How can we get through to those who dehumanize others like this? This animation is my attempt, and I think it’s relevant both religiously and politically.

One possible interpretation of the Euthyphro dilemma is that authority-based moral systems lead to a very extreme form of moral relativism. This video illustrates that. The "objective" morals of theists is not nearly as objective as they think.

The video is fiction. It's like a play. Stories do not in and of themselves prove anything.

However, we have all seen theists make excuses exactly like this on exactly this topic about this exact story from the Bible.

If Christians want to prevent genocide in the future, it would be helpful if Christians stopped making excuses for genocide in the past (whether or not said genocide actually happened).
