As many licks as it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll pop. In my op I quoted both ot and nt examples of slavery. Did I not?
Chattel (the common understanding of slavery) along with Indentured servants were both mentioned.
Quote:I'm not saying 2000 years ago all slaves were treated well. I am saying as a Christian, slaves and free alike were equals before God. The book of Philemon is about a run away slave and Paul's request the Philemon take him back as a brother.If they are equal in the eyes of an all-powerful god, seems like they wouldn't be slaves. Oh, don't tell me. It's spiritual equality. Over yonder by and by. Bullshit. Yours is a god who supports the status quo.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.
