Are you sure you don't mean where in the Bible does Jesus instruct you on how to treat your slaves ?

Donna Matrix · Post by **Donna Matrix** » Thu Jan 10, 2008 7:45 pm

slaves were not banned in the Bible.. they were sanctioned... but the slavery in the Bible was not lifetime servitude but only for a time - like indentured servitude for payment of something thing (money borrowed, services rendered or criminal activity that didn't require the death penalty). like passage to America often came with a time period of service to be payed off...

and yes, I have typos... gee..

I just want to tell all you guys that being picked on in here is so much better than being picked on anywhere else.

Kiss, kiss..... I love burners... hug, hug....

I just have this gift of discension and you all have been pretty good sports about it all.

Okay... then let the games begin anew...

Donna Matrix · Post by **Donna Matrix** » Thu Jan 10, 2008 8:01 pm

slavery was in both the old and the new testament. Jesus said if one is a slave then be a good slave. The old testament goes over the slavery stuff better - as I remember.

But then I have quite a bit of port in me right now... so my mind is a lttle fuzzy.

It says in the Old books that you can smack them around to keep them in place,
but if you knock out a tooth or take out an eye, ya gotta let them be free !!!

Very good Dicky... If I do say so myself...

I am watching Rome - the series - from HBO right now on Netflix... anybody else seen it? It is very well done...

I want some slaves... I'd be kinda nice to them, but not really. I'd make them work - hard.

Martin Luther expressed his belief that all Jews should be put in cages.

Jesus tell the slaves to be the best little slaves they can be.
Even if master is slapping them around a little.

Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the forward" (1 Peter 2:18}.
"Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling,
in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ" (Ephesians 6:5)

Jesus doesn't say that. At best Ephesians was Paul, or maybe a false Paul, I can't keep up with this. And who knows who wrote Acts or when it was written. The whole "Jesus" concept is fuzzy enough, I'm really don't like ascribing words of possibly Paul and possibly Peter to Jesus.

Yes, sounds like merchants in the flesh market wrote the bible along with the romans.

to think the only way for these religions to be as big as they are were though force.

oneeyeddick · Post by **oneeyeddick** » Fri Jan 11, 2008 7:47 am

Don't you mean ' farce ' ?

Donna Matrix · Post by **Donna Matrix** » Fri Jan 11, 2008 7:57 am

I do think a clear definition of slavery would be appropriate at this time.

Donna Matrix · Post by **Donna Matrix** » Fri Jan 11, 2008 8:03 am

farce / force / fact / faith / fakir / fame / fashion / father / fatuous / fear /

Does it matter how it came to be if it is?

oneeyeddick · Post by **oneeyeddick** » Fri Jan 11, 2008 8:07 am

I'll take answer A: all of the above.

Twisting the word slavery into something like 'indentured servant
only benefits the ego of the slave.
It is what it is, slavery. They used whips back in those days also.

Donna Matrix · Post by **Donna Matrix** » Fri Jan 11, 2008 8:27 am

Some people still use whips today... uh? uh? uh? am I right or what?

Donna Matrix · Post by **Donna Matrix** » Fri Jan 11, 2008 8:30 am

Yes but if I had to pick - I'd pick indentured servant because that is only a slave for a time to pay off a debt

While slavery - as practiced in the South and Roman - was Slave for life unless the Master set you free

Donna, you couldn't be less wrong-some of us still use whips today. Please excuse me while I whip up some scrambled hags.

I seem to recall something about labor camps here in the USA after the abolishment of slavery that used an indentured servant tactic. Basically the land owner would charge the workers more for rent and sundries than the worker made hence placing the worker in a perpetual debt to the land owner basically making them slaves. Let's not gloss over it, slavery is slavery.

Donna Matrix · Post by **Donna Matrix** » Fri Jan 11, 2008 9:30 am

okay - let's be honest then.

What is the current credit system then? Isn't that slavery?

How about a job? Isn't that slavery?

How about family? Isn't that slavery?

Pretty much anything a person feels that they have to do - Isn't that slavery?

Slavery is alive and well and living in the USA - and around the world.
