Do you have a moral basis for slavery being wrong? If so I would like to see it, seriously.

Most quote their history teachers, their parents, the Washington Post, laws of the land, but these are political and legal reasons.

Game recognizes game, paht-nah. If you don't think I recognize an intellectually dishonest scenario when it's staring me in the face, you're seriously wrong.

Like I said, it is hypocritical to say you are a "free" land while writing laws on the ownership of other human beings. That's complete hypocrisy.

You want to make it appear that it was somehow okay. And I don't care if it were white or black slaveowners, if you were to attempt justifying the practice of slavery which held my ancestors while your ancestors preached "freedom" in my presence, you'd hate the day you were born.

No mercy.

I think you've found the wrong forum, buddy. Free Republic is dedicated to the proposition that freedom is the natural and proper state of men. Should you disagree, you are welcome to register SlaveRepublic.com for the furtherance of your political and moral views.

I believe that Jews and Christians point to the Book of Exodus.

God made men. Men made slaves.
