I did see it. You interpreted it as such. The definition itself did not. Nor did I read it as such.

Slavery is the denial of freedom, not possesion. God seperates "freedom" from "possesion" in His Word, and even advocates slavery, while making "Thou Shalt not steal" one of the Big Ten.

That is one of the arguments that certain "Christians" used to justify slavery. Are you one of them?

while making "Thou Shalt not steal" one of the Big Ten.

Well then, slavery is a sin because it involves stealing someone else's property rights to their labor.
