Don’t forget is was white male Christians who abolished slavery in the free world. Slavery still exists in much of Africa.

Slavery is only wrong when it involves Christians enslaving non-Christians or whites enslaving non-whites. Any other combination and who cares?

Turkish pirates used to enslave people on any ships they could capture in the Mediterranean, or raid villages near the coasts and carry off the peasants as slaves--you never hear about that, or about the millions trafficked by Arab slavetraders.
