Correct. And you have established what kind of member he is.

I think that the point to be made is that yes, there were some great, kind, caring slave owners in biblical times, yes there were some good, liberal, slave owners 200 years ago as well. However, the thing is, slavery being legal can be used to be horrid, torturous, and pain-stakingly bad, it invites these qualities to occur but does not mean they always do, but even if they do not always occur that is not an argument for the morality of it, what the bible commands in it's passages for slavery are not those you'd see in a liberal, loving, slave owners house hold, no, they are those qualities I mentioned as fitting the extremely bad examples of slavery, once you can treat a human being however you want, you can use this legality to justify any of the cruelty you commit.(January 14, 2016 at 1:17 pm)Drich Wrote: Again, Not all slaves were treated badly I gave examples from the bible and modern times. Why don't you try addressing the points I made rather than speaking about the stereotype your comfortable with?(bolding is mine) The fact that not all slave owners were terrible to their slaves alone is proof enough that this is not some societal development in morality, like Drich claims, this was not moral back then and it's not moral now that's why some slave owners were much less cruel than others, simply because something is legal does not mean it is correct. If this was morally correct back in biblical times, if this was just some recent social progression in morality, there would not be any slave owners who cared about their slaves, because they wouldn't know there was anything wrong with treating them brutally in the first place, which clearly, is not the case.

I've been pretty much mystified the entire time...I always thought that Drich was a chapter and verse kind of guy. Never expected to see him sourcing his revelations from Netflix........wtf?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

This God of his however is the most wish-washy son of a bitch i've ever heard of. You know what fuck Paul and Matthew and whoever the sam-hell fucking wrote the bible as well, it's like they were school girls giggling in a corner as they wrote some notes and passed them to the boys as they watched them try to decrypt the message during recess. Jesus Christ, the people who wrote the fucking Bible literally invented trolling.Quote:thought he was an established member of some sort Which is better:
