Blaming either on theology is ridiculous though
Theology gets blamed because it is always a bad argument, regardless if it is on the right or wrong side of the issue, and far too many people think just the opposite: not only is it a good argument, but the best and final word (which, in terms of Judeo-Christian theology on the topic of slavery, is entirely accommodating).
