So... are you suggesting that NO Bible scholar has ever owned slaves?There is a BIG difference between semi-literate "God fearing, well read, people" slave owners trying to justify their own selfish interests and Bible scholars, who did not own slaves, with no vested interest, with knowledge of the Biblical languages, and Bible history. Are you aware of that? How does that affect your argument?
Kind of like people who selfishly pick and choose how literally to interpret one passage, but not another, based upon how they want to feel about it?There is a BIG difference between semi-literate "God fearing, well read, people" slave owners trying to justify their own selfish interests and Bible scholars, who did not own slaves, with no vested interest, with knowledge of the Biblical languages, and Bible history.

...[SIZE=-1]and actually the more accurately you translate the passages from the biblical languages, the more it supports slavery. The KJV tried to soften it by changing "slave" to "servant"[/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]Der Alter, stop denying that the Bible supports slavery. It's black and white. Unless, of course, you take into account bad translation which is what I've been trying to say about homosexuality[/SIZE].
I read what you said... you said that slavery was condoned by people whgo didn't have the indepth knowledge of the Bible that serious Biblical scholars have... so, rather than make snide remarks, how about you try to give a straight answer for a change... Have ANY Biblical scholars owned slaves... and if sio, how does that line up with your theory that the Bible never condones slavery?Try reading what I said, if you want to respond quote it exactly and stop deliberately perverting what I say.

Aha! Another goal post shift! So now its only ACCREDITED Biblical scholars that didn't own slaves...Here is what you claim I said.
What I actually said and where I said it. See any difference?
I don't know if any accredited scholars owned slaves, or not, it is not my argument. If you think so back it up or pack it up. If you want to address what I say quote my posts.
I want to know what could possibly be harmful about slavery in the first place. Slavery is not bad it is the abuse of that power (or any power) that is bad. Alcohol is not bad, guns are not bad, but people are.

uh oh you done did it now.....I would run and hide from the rocks that will now come flying lol. You have now opened Pandoras box and I must commend your braverythats the bravest funniest post I ever saw! Awesome
You would have me believe that someone subjecating themselves is wrong? As christians that is are calling. Force maybe used but that is were it becomes sin.
How so? We are to serve are parents. Our elders. In fact anyone that has authority from heaven, that includes governments.
I will assume you posted your remarks as a joke, which either way, it shows the type of person you are. Maybe slavery, as we know it, is the buying/selling of PEOPLE as a commodity. Owned as "property" there is no freedom for slaves, as they are at the mercy of their owners...so yeah, there is something very inherently wrong with that. Even if you were the best slave owner on the planet, it still doesn't jusify having another human being as your property. Children, elders, etc...are not OWNED by anyone. Perhaps b/c you're only 18 you don't get it..either way you're old enough to learn in the event you don't understand.How so? We are to serve are parents. Our elders. In fact anyone that has authority from heaven, that includes governments.
lol - I don't even know how to respond to that one...or where to begin.I want to know what could possibly be harmful about slavery in the first place. Slavery is not bad it is the abuse of that power (or any power) that is bad. Alcohol is not bad, guns are not bad, but people are.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
Yet I bet anyone here $10 that David X won't be in a huge rush to subject himself to slavery anytime soonYou would have me believe that someone subjecating themselves is wrong? As christians that is are calling. Force maybe used but that is were it becomes sin.
