You are automatically more moral than the God of the Bible if you oppose slavery.

Nothing in Philemon suggests that Onesimus was a runaway slave. It was Philemon who was wronged by Onesimus, not the other way around. This means that Onesimus was thrown of out of Philemon's household. If Onesimus was a runaway, Paul wouldn’t have to convince Philemon to take him back. Instead, Philemon would be furiously demanding his return. Paul asks Philemon to take Onesimus back, not as a slave, but as a dear brother. Thus, Paul wants to re-establish the relationship between Philemon and Onesimus, but he wants it to be different as well, another striking text that shows that Paul condemned slavery.

Paul was not a sexist or a bigot. I'm not sure where you are getting that from.

You seem like you have a lot of unfounded hatred towards Christianity.
