Exodus 21:16 has nothing to do with what we're talking about here. We both understand that Israelites were prohibited from kidnapping into slavery. I never claimed they weren't.
Congratulations, you've now made assertions that slavery as described in the bible is both moral and immoral.
You're still stuck in a fantasy world where all of the Israelite slaves were treated well. The law protecting them did not apply to non-Israelite slaves. Not that it matters - that just is a greater degree of immorality.
No law that allows slavery is moral or just. It appears that you're too married to dogma to realize that.
