Well, if you really want to get into it, you are aware that Jesus specifically supported slavery, right? Break out the Bible and check out Matthew 8:5-13, Luke 12:47, and Matthew 10:24-25.

That's quite a stretch, even for you Spktyr . . .

Singling out those verses and claiming Christ supported slavery is a gross misinterpretation. Healing a servant and recognizing the existence of a relationship between a Master and a servant is not exactly unqualified support of slavery.

BTW, before you go there, being a servant of Christ is something that one does willingly. No one is forced into servitude of Christ.
