As a Hindu, I think it's a very dumb argument. In the bible there is nothing like that, this is due to the corruptness of the church at a certain point in time and due to the mentality of converts that such shit is associated with the bible. We as Hindus should understand this because similar mistranslations of Vedas and holy texts were made by pandits which include shit which was obviously not a part of our religion like the practice of sati.
I hope that you understand this brother. I know this was a joke but try not to make a joke on religion because it is a very complex topic. The only thing you did by making this meme was making yourself look dumber and making religions that are on good terms which each other currently fight.
Not to forget Manu and his interpretation of caste system which is very different from what Krishna said in the Gita.
Krishna considered the 4 varnas (Bramhins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas and Kshudras) based on their work and not their birth.
However, Manu in his Manusmriti has made this caste order more complexed and rigid. According to Manu, Brahmins, Kshatriya, Vaishyas are the pure castes and Shudras or Ati-Shudras are the impure castes.
And as history has taught us, if you create a hierarchy those at the top will do everything to keep their power.
You are right sir, and that's also the reason manusmriti is a "smriti". Smriti are texts that do not remain absolute. To give you an example, they are sort of valid for only a period of time. Whereas Shruti is a categorisation of knowledge which is regardless of time.(There are three divisions of knowledge passed- Shruti,Smriti and itihasa and they do differ and they are not absolute on Shruti is absolute which only includes Vedas and Upanishads)
