Stop.
Accept that you have given slavery your stamp of approval. Not shitty working conditions. Not low wages. Slavery.
There's an easy solution to this. You can simply concede what we all know by now. You do not actually condone slavery, and you cannot reconcile gods position on the subject. You don't know why god condoned it...you disagree with god in that regard. This is an argument that you don't wan't to win, so stop trying so hard.
An admission that god is, at times, inexplicable to you and not in lock-step with your own notions of equity or morality will not weaken your position of faith. There's no need for you to be an asshat that you aren't..particularly when you could just be the asshat that you are.
