No it sure isn't, obviously there are people who think slavery is moral like you and your god, I just think its sick.
If it is actually true that Athrock and God both think slavery is ok (which I am certain is not the case), then how can you say they are monsters for believing it if there is no such thing as real right and wrong?
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
