Quote:The Greek word, doulos as used in the Bible can be translated as slave, but also as servant. They had legal rights, weren't servants all their lives, and their circumstances weren't based on race. Often slavery in those times was the alternative to slaughter. You continue to (intentially) conflate this benign state with the current race-based colonial slavery.Benign state
The Gymnastics here are hilarious.
Quote:Jesus didn't speak out against a lot of things that did and didn't exist then. He never specifically mentioned embezzlement, bestiality, arson, or other iniquities. You're dishonest when you say it means He was immoral for not doing so.Yeah, but he could have universally condemned any form of slavery or indentured servitude period. He didn't and that makes him immoral

“No matter what men think, abortion is a fact of life. Women have always had them; they always have and they always will. Are they going to have good ones or bad ones? Will the good ones be reserved for the rich, while the poor women go to quacks?”
