This episode explores how many Christian men and women, over time, have reinterpreted parts of the Bible—not because scripture changed, but because their own moral understanding did. As society grew more attuned to justice, compassion, and equality, believers gradually revised their views on slavery, gender roles, and other once-defended norms. Ironically, this evolution aligns closely with the secular humanist belief that morality is not fixed by divine decree but shaped through human progress. The result? A quiet convergence, as even the faithful continue renegotiating with their sacred texts to reflect a more humane world.
