[quote]How can you know this and willingly lie about it? Sounds like sin to me. Hee hee.[/quote]Not a judgement just an honest observation, Maybe this is why your faith failed. Because your Master call you to service and you ignored your call because you thought His call to be another analogy.

[quote]What is your point here? Just because we can enjoy the fruits of a modern society doesn't mean we can't condemn slavery? [/quote] NO YOU CAN NOT LEST YOU BE A FOOL OR HYPOCRITE!
90% of consumer goods are either completely made by 'slave labor' or contain parts made by oppressed enslaved people. TV's, Cars, computters, appliances, textiles/cloths. all sorts of electronics, componets, toys, But again unless someone meets your understanding of a slave, then you are willing to over look modern day examples of it for the sake of inexpensive consumer goods.
[quote]What exactly is a "livable wage"? And is it better to be working at a crappy job for $X an hour or to be not working and making zero dollars an hour?[/quote] A livable wage is being able to pay for a place to live food to eat and the day to day needs one must have just to survive. You know, things a slave owner was bound by the Law of God to provide (In the biblical examples I have been talking about since the beginning.) In your world it is ok to give less to a man than a biblical slave would be entitled to, for the sake of not having the title you have deemed 'always bad.'
[quote]Why would anyone think that?[/quote]
[quote]Oh, bullshit. Get off your soapbox and address the issue at hand in this thread.[/quote]Now that i have connected a few more of the dots can you see how they are connected yet?
