On an adjacent thread, someone has pointed out that The New Testament reckons slaves must obey their masters. So, the idiots don't even have to go back to the disgusting sections of The Old Testament to justify their outrageous output. They can find it in what Christians keep telling me is the "real" message.

Slavery may be a blessing in disguise because we can look at it, hang collective heads in shame and endeavour to try at least to make society a little fairer. Although with that attitude, if I were in The USA, I would be a red under the bed to the rednecks. Interesting colour red, it also got splashed around a bit in slavery circles.

Still does in fact...
