    I’m missing some context, in a big way. All I know is this was a letter to the Corinthian church, by Paul?

    • Yah, I don’t know either. I’m just not sure what OP is objecting to as “cringe.” Viewing marriage as slavery certainly isn’t a commonly held Christian viewpoint. I got a reply that using the bible to argue anything is cringe; I assume that would be their view if someone argued against usury, murder, rape, or whatever by using passages from the bible.

      The sound bite reads as if a Christian opposes marriage, and is using the Bible itself as a reference. I’m lost about what’s cringey about it.
