"No I don't. My basis for morality is the Bible."

You have no moral code, why are you pretending you do? You have said repeatedly you think that there is nothing wrong with slavery. That if the government makes something legal, it's ok. That if other cultures allow different things, who are we to say that would they do is wrong? You have said,

"Like I said, the Bible doesn't support it nor does it condemn it, so who am I to say it is immoral."

"Why is it not wrong in other countries? If there laws allow it, that is what makes it right."

This means you base your *morality* not on any rational base but whatever a government happens to say. When they come to drag you and your family away to be chattel slaves, you will have nothing to argue with then about. What will you say? You can't say it's WRONG, because you don't believe anything a government does CAN be wrong. I repeat your own statement:

"Why is it not wrong in other countries? If there laws allow it, that is what makes it right."




"Yours, contrary to your opinion, is based on what you think."

Your disgust for rational thought is palpable. My morality comes from the nature of existence, and what it takes for a human being to survive in this world: the Mind. My opinion won't change that fact, any more than you can pretend to be anything other than a pro-slavery, anti-Mind, collectivist.

My morality comes from the nature of existence,

My, that certainly is a profound statement. How could anyone argue with that? They can't. Because everyone exists therefore everyone has an opinion and all opinions are of the same value. Who can argue otherwise? Since we all exist we all have valid opinions.
