Why is this cringe, though? They're not arguing something countless artists haven't; they're just using their Bible as a reference to support the argument.

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.

Arguing anything on the basis of the Bible (or any religious text) is pretty cringe.

Huh. I'd expect that take from an #athiest community. I don't think this is an "anything having to do with religion is cringe" community.
