Robert Heinlein is no more an authority on what is sin and what isn't than you or I.

His comments regarding slavery directly contradict those in the Bible.

What is your opinion on this?

I don't know what he said and I don't know what passage from the bible you say he disagrees with.

I would add an aside however, I have seen lots of people put their own interpretations on what they say bible says on any number of subjects.

In studying the bible myself, I have run across countless passages that turn out not to mean anything like what I originally thought they meant.

This pretty much sums up the Bible and slavery.

Maybe Coyote will start saying the Bible supports divorce and polygamy too.
