Slavery can come back. fine with me, so long as the people are treated in a god pleasing manner.

I know this sounds like RSTDT material, but slavery could be if we just got rid of minimum wage.
According to the Confederates, "niggers" were not human, therefore treating them like livestock was considered godly.
Hey, and who does Nick want as slaves? I say, take Nick into slavery, but treat him nice. Do just not unchain him.
Well, he's got us there. In the OT, God was quite pleased with slavery (although stealing someone's slave was punishable by stoning, and if you bought a woman as a slave, you had to pay her father if you wanted to return her in "used" condition).
You mean, beaten, forced to go to church whether they believe or not, generally persecuted and burned if they disobey?
Yeah, that'll work! Vermin!
Slavery never left.
However, you may purchase male or female slaves from among the foreigners who live among you. You may also purchase the children of such resident foreigners, including those who have been born in your land. You may treat them as your property, passing them on to your children as a permanent inheritance. You may treat your slaves like this, but the people of Israel, your relatives, must never be treated this way. (Leviticus 25:44-46 NLT)
That is not how people should be treated?
"Slavery can come back. fine with me, so long as the people are treated in a god pleasing manner."
That thought get you hot, Nicky-boy? Getting a chubby are we...? You mucky-minded little filthhound; it's the boxing gloves for you tonight, you dirty bird! God is a dom, eh? You want to be his bottom, displaying your own, to receive some righteous 'judgement' methinks.
Freud was right about you lot - it IS all about the buttsex with you fundies!
Would you people get rid of this Indentured servant concept already? That was a financial agreement and could range from being treated well, free half the time, to treated as bad as any captured forced laborer.
Owning someone is wrong, even if you're decent to them, slavery is owning someone.
Are you assuming that you'll be a slave-owner rather than a slave? Don't be too sure. We have already had what is essentially slavery in some religious cults, that make it nearly impossible for a person to get out. Slavery, contrary to popular opinion, does not imply that blacks will be the slaves and whites the owners.
Fine, White fundamentalist are the new slave class, under migrant worker supervisors.
Don't worry, they won't work you harder than they had to.
What? That's not fine now?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
