Islam is specifically based on slavery in a way that Christianity most definitely is not.

Nowhere in the New Testament are Christians exhorted to go forth to conquer and enslave unbelievers as in the Koran. We’re instructed to proclaim the word of God to them, quite a different concept.

Indeed. Jesus told his disciples “If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, leave that home or town and shake the dust off your feet”. Mohammed commanded his followers to react in a slightly different way. Islam is altogether antagonistic whereas Christianity embodies God’s gift of free will. There is no concept of free will in Islam.

Davis said the vast scope of slavery in North Africa has been ignored and minimized, in large part because it is on no one’s agenda to discuss what happened.

Got that right.
