Speak for yourself.
Quote:we in modern time simple relable our slavery into various sub catagories and then it becomes not only ok but expected in some instances.
Is this even English?
Quote:Now the word 'slavery' only means a black man in a field being worked to death, but in the time of Christ slavery meant being poor, and making a living for yourself and your family.
That's quite an assertion. Have any evidence of that being the case, or are you speaking out of your ass... again?
Quote:Got to remember the world did not have the same dependence on currency we do now
Yeah, man, those Romans knew nothing of currency.
Quote:10 years of slvery= 10 years room board for you and your family. This is the biblical picture of slavery that many of you don't seem to get. not just a white man beating a black man in a cotton field.
Or, perhaps, you don't understand and are merely regurgitating the hand waving that Christians employ all the time to make their heinous religion seem better than it actually is to modern sensibilities.
