you're just plain a *****. lol.

of course not all christians supported slavery, duh, i never said they did.
but as a nation we had legal slavery in our constitution and in a large number of states, and that was supported by christians.

I don't deny that ancient Christian leftists supported slavery in the past just like they support abortion and sodomy in the present.

When I call Christians leftists I mean to identify those professing Christians who are not walking pleasing to God. God never supported human rights abuses like slavery in early America any more than He does today.

Joe Biden's, Barack Obama's, and Hillary Clinton's religions support abortion and sexual perversion.

Again, I don't belong to that denomination.

You are becoming more unhinged by the day.

Slavery in the Old Testament Law

Slave ownership was a common practice long before the time the Mosaic Law was given. So, the law neither instituted slavery nor ended it; rather, the law regulated it. It gave instructions on how slaves should be treated but did not outlaw slavery altogether.

New Testament Instruction on Slavery

Even in the New Testament era, the Bible did not demand that every slave owner immediately emancipate his slaves. Rather, the apostles gave instructions to slaves and their owners on godly behavior within that social system. Masters were admonished on the proper treatment of their slaves.


sounds like slave owners were honoring god. so you're saying it was the "leftist" christians who honored god? lol

Only the most deranged of human idiots would presume to suggest God was wrong in how He dealt with human slavery.

You only make matters worse between yourself and God by slandering Him in that stupid disrespectful way.

you only make matters worse for yourself by defending a god who condones slavery.
