There's a kind of slavery that's better than any other kind? WHO KNEW???? All this time I thought slavery was a vile concept. Learned something new today.At the risk of getting off topic, according to the Toronto Star and other sources, there are more people in slavery today then ever before. The Bible laws on slavery are far different then the oppressive slavery practiced today. Nowhere does the Bible condone mistreating or oppressing others. Oppressive slavery is but one of many evils practiced by a world alienated from God.
Snark aside, the bible says that you can beat your slave nearly to death, so long as he/she doesn't actually die right away. Pardon me while I think that's no better than "any other kind" of slavery.
