Yes, but comparative barbarism is hardly the point. The point is those were God's instructions, and those instructions were evil. I find that puzzling.

How about.....nothing..? :P

There might be verses that could be applied to it, but since autos were certainly not invented then.. :P

Race Car Drivers are trained and know how to handle their cars, I hardly think they're driving maniacally.

Hmmm... looking back, that was quite irrelevant, but I saw a verse in Nahum that kinda piqued my interest there.... but whatever a better question is....

Week Three or Four, depending if you're ED or not

What does the Bible say about...
Money?

To drive the discussion, look in Song of Solomon.

No! They were actually limits God put on slavery for the moment. You can see limits like, "Don't enslave your own people" and others. So they were slightly lenient instructions to a stubborn group of slave masters, not commands to enslave others.

What does the Bible say about...

Big government?

Big government is when individuals recieve various government handouts in exchange for some kind of exposure. It was invented by F. Roosevelt. Kennedy and Clinton merely perfected it.
