Before I was even through making my initial presentation a young man in his 20’s, the youngest person in the room by decades, objected to what I was saying and dismissed it out-of-hand because I read from the writings of Jonathan Edwards. This man’s mind has been polluted to the point he totally rejected Jonathan Edwards because he owned slaves,

Wait till he gets to Abraham, and Paul and Peter's inspired counsel on the matter! I dare say being part of the salvific covenant, with 6 days work and room and board, and freedom if escaped or a master knocked even a tooth out, as per Biblical slavery , is better than the captivity of the welfare mentality and what it typically fosters.

Indeed. I have a real good sermon on slavery from a biblical perspective. I have thought of handing him a copy someday.
