What is with refusing to admit slavery is wrong?

(August 14, 2015 at 4:58 pm)MrNoMorePropaganda Wrote: Why do religionists refuse to condemn slavery? I hate arguments like "it was normal back then", "everyone else was doing it" or "so-and-so put rules in place to make sure slaves were well treated". Why can't they just admit the author(s) of their religious text(s) were influenced by moral relativism? Why is it so hard for so many people to say that slavery is wrong?

Because if they did, they would also have to admit that their Gaud was wrong to regulate and condone an inhumane and immoral practice instead of abolishing it outright during ancient times, and that the Wholly Babble is not inerrant nor is it an absolute source of objective morality. Basically, it would fuck their beliefs to pieces.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):

"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)
