Some Atheists™ are concerned by and of the opinion that god in magic book commanded, endorsed, and regulated slavery - because he did.
Man, lowly fallen worm that he is, outlawed it.
To put a fine point on it, beyond pure fanfic argument, we know that they were a slaving society and that their appetite for slaves exceeded their ability to produce them in country both biblically, and extrabiblically. As in, archeaologically. Insomuch as contemporary christianity as a movement doesn't support slavery, it's in the disagreement of contemporary believers with the foundational myth of their own religion, their own god - and in their contemporary disagreement with the culture that produced that myth and absolutely were eager slavers. They've been secularized by an anti-slavery state and culture. If the contents of this thread were representative...and god knows they aren't, if that state or culture fell to theocracy 1/3rd of christians would go buy their very own slave, 1/3 would pretend not to see them doing it, and the remaining third would declare anyone who objected an asshole for mentioning it.
I don't think god is sending his best people.....
