Well the bible regulates slavery and doesn't exactly condemn it.

The masters were told to take good care of them. They were to treat them like we treat our hired help. These were people being tossed about by the rulers laws of the day, but Christians were not to treat them like animals. They were to have human compassion for them.

I don't even know where to start with you and since time is so limited. I would suggest you read the verses that speak to slavery and consult a very good Bible commentary. Good Luck!
