>>11475946the greeks and romans kept slaves (pagan and muslim), they only made it so you can't have christian slaves
but even this is not biblical, as the bible tells the slaves to be obedient to their masters and their master to be good to their slaves
and that we are all ultimately slaves of god, the orthodox in bulgaria still call themselves / christians "rab"- meaning slave (to god)
the one who made slavery illegal around the world were the english / anglicans, and only to hurt the economies of the portuguese, spanish, americans and others in the colonial game
either way i'm not a fan of slavery, but i am saying that the christians certainly practiced it, at the very least the american pilgrims did
in genesis 4 god puts a mark on the murderer cain, so that people will know to distance themselves from him and his children
in genesis 9 noah curses the sons of ham/canaan to be slaves to his brothers
