What makes you think that because slavery exists we must be actively against it, or as a result are condoning it?
Just because murder can help kill drug overlords, and other murderers, does that mean I condone all murder?
You go against every good Christian moral value you claim to stand for, you are a hypocrite living under a facade that your beliefs are rational, you fail to reconcile any of the immorality in the bible and when the problem is identified in the bible you don't change your agreement on whether or not that section of the bible is moral, you change your stance on the subject to agree with the bible's concept of morality. You are simply and utterly unable to think for yourself. You have openly condoned slavery not because slavery is bad, but apparently simply because it exists, and it is that irrational thinking alone that made everyone instantly want to say you can sincerely go fuck yourself.
I would respond to all you said, but you don't deserve my time.
To quote whoever it was on this forum that said it:
"If you want us to respect your beliefs, go get some fucking respectable beliefs!"
you condone it when you buy products that support or require slavery to make them.
example:
What happened when the owner of Chick Filet spoke out against homosexuality? what did the homosexual community do in protest to chick filet
What happen to Donald trumps sponcers when he came out hard against Muslims and immigration/the Mexico wall?
Why?
what about Disney when they would not give equal benfits to homosexual couples?
Ever heard the term fair trade coffee?? how did that come about?
These companies were boycotted, reason the people boycott a company is so that their money does not go to fund a practice or ideal they do not agree with.
How many companies do you support (no matter the cost) that only deal with items and products that were completely created/grown in a fair trade environment? How many products have you gone without or completely abandoned? (like cell phones for instance) their isn't a cell on the market that does not utilize components made or assembled by slave hands.
You want to talk about not thinking for yourself, why haven't you identified how slavery impacts/provides every aspect of your existence? Are you really so stupid as to believe that after the American civial war all slavery ended? Are you so foolish to believe that 55" plasma TV's can really be produced, packaged, shipped, and sold at retail for less than 200 dollars for a profit without slave labor involved?
Do you think Bananas can be shipped to your grocery store of choice year round for a price you can afford to pay without slavery?
You need to grow up, you are the one who needs to learn to think on his own and stop pretending you don't Need slavery to live every aspect of your life no matter how humble in this or any other western culture!
