And Hells come back to haunt me

God allowed man to form such a society, He does not condone slavery.

In 1844, the national Baptist General Convention for Foreign Missions refused to license slaveowning missionaries. One year later, that refusal led to the split between the northern and southern Baptists. The southern Baptists were absolutely convinced that the Bible taught that God had divinely sanctioned slavery. As early as 1823, Richard Furman, a leader of the South Carolina Baptist Convention, a slaveholder, and for whom Furman University is named, stated in a famous address to the Governor of South Carolina, "The right of holding slaves is clearly established by the Holy Scriptures, both by precept and example." [See Exposition of The Views of the Baptists, Relative To The Coloured Population In The United States]. The next year, in 1845, those firmly convicted defenders of slavery formed their own separate Baptist denomination, the Southern Baptist Convention.

Now what does it say beside your Avatar GC?

I see nothing there where God condoned slavery, I do see where man wants to take advantage of another people. Southern Baptist or not they were wrong, period. I'm not going to argue slavery with you because it can not be traced back to a single nation. Africans were actually enslaving their own people long before America was discovered, they actually took and sold their own people into slavery to peoples of all different nationalities.
