Yes; that, a weight too heavy to bear, the religion -to their logic- couldn't keep its current state -that in the time of Mohammed-..it had to be forged.
I never knew the details about such thing -christianity & slavery-. Yet I'm aware that the confederation states allowed it -with a religious flavor-, but most my info came from the novel "uncle tom" & movies, to be honest.
The argument about it is that it's a new form of slavery. Thinking about it in an abstract way, we are bound to be slaves to the brands and mega fast food chains, while being forced to act within a banking system that makes the fat cats fatter via loans with interest. Egypt is an example : the bankers keep offering loans until the debt is technically impossible to pay; Britian too has a loan that dates to hundreds of years, for a country stuck in such whirlwind, it has to offer the bankers and elite businessmen more ground to invest in (i.e selling its land), hence go to full-scale wars at sometimes to repay the debt..
Countries that get broken, literally send people to work as maids (since the income in the country at debt is too low), a case seen everyday in Saudi Araba with Bengali maids & workers who get scorched for days under the hot sun of Arabia just for the sake of a better income..
You can't take gold anywhere with you; too, to escape this economical imprisonment. I see it as a different type of slavery.
Do we really have a free will with such conditions ?
God bless the comandante
I remember reading his diary when I was a child -che-, until today I remember the miracle of his victory. What were the odds ? yes; if people stacked together for the right cause miracles can happen. And the cause of that movement was something good.
Yes, one of the most legit examples one might ever bring.. change can happen after all if people had the heart & will for it.
Honestly, I do too. Such country is better than a forged, fake sharia.
God never forgets those who did good. And that the cause that wins, no matter what.
We all must try our best within the conditions we were born to. I too don't like it where I'm. But ain't it the new world order that we have to live under ? all exploit all..
Quote:Try telling telling the Arab slave traders of old that the Quran tells them to free slaves. Quickly, you'll find that Quran interpretation is often driven by one's desires. Did you know that people used the Bible to both attack and support slavery? Some people asserted (and probably still do) the Bible allows slaves and that's how the American Civil War started.

Quote:But in regard to your comments about wealth: No, we're not all slaves. But I think we need to define what a slave is. I think you're confusing slavery with oppression. True, many slaves are oppressed – but simply because someone is oppressed doesn't mean they are slave. When I think of slaves I think of the Arab or Atlantic slave trades.

Quote:If people have the will they can change things. We saw it in Cuba, for example. Cuba was dominated by imperialism for much of its history and then they had their revolution. And now Cubans live free from the rich elites that would like to dominate poor countries. In fact, things are so good in Cuba now that Cubans can expect to live just as long as Americans. Personally, I would much rather live in Cuba than under the Sharia.

Quote:I'm not saying living where I am now is bad. However I do realize that exploitation of poor people helps to maintain the standard of living in my country. This saddens me and I hope it changes. I do my best avoid retailers that exploit poor people.
