Slavery (on Thursdays)

[Wyrd of Gawd]

You do know that the bible supports slavery, right?

I guess it supports slavery, if by "support" you mean the one story about God sending Moses Into Egypt to free 2 million slaves. and having to feed and provide water for them for 40 years.

That's one of the funniest stories in the Bible. When Israel and his thuggish sons went to Egypt Joseph gave the scum the best land. Then they lived off of Egyptian welfare for hundreds of years out of the limelight tending livestock. Finally a Pharaoh woke up one morning and said "let's put those lazy moochers to work." So he had them build two treasure cities. They whined like babies because they had to do some manual labor.

And then when they left Egypt the ungrateful thieves stole everything smaller than the Sphinx. Despite having all kinds of livestock they were too lazy to kill any of it to eat. They wanted to go back to Egypt where the living was easy and live off of Egyptian welfare.

Moses got ticked and killed thousands.

The first thing they did when they got out of the wilderness was to enslave other people. They were despicable.

Does it say that these bondmen and women were taken against their will? I clearly showed your where that was illegal. And I also explained they were allowed to go free in the year of Jubilee.

So a guy who ended up as a slave the day after the year of Jubilee would have to wait how long before he might have been set free?

I wonder why American slave owners didn't observe that tradition since they loved having slaves so much? Why didn't they follow the rules?
