He had no problem with slavery though...
Morality is subjective to to time and society you live in. What may have been moral yesterday is not necessarily moral today. What is immoral today may be moral tomorrow.
This is incorrect.
I really don't think a person can read the life of Jesus in its entirety and come out of it having the honest (key word) belief that Jesus condones slavery.
Or, if we go looking will we find jeebus exhorting slaves to obey their masters? How can you square that with the idea that jeebus did anything other than condone it?
That was the morality of the day.

So, jeebus committed suicide for our sins. But isn't suicide a sin?!? How can a sin resolve other sins? You kathy-licks are a silly bunch.
I think choosing to not resist the enemy does not constitute as suicide.
Ahhhh. But that's not what you said at first. "Chose to die" and "choosing to not resist the enemy" are not really the same thing.
