Interesting debate if somewhat too personal at times.
Bear with me a moment; think of the heat of this same exact issue 160 years ago when slaves were the reality. Think of the carnage, the war that followed was by far the most shockingly bloody, with the crowned heads and subjects of Europe in disbelief over the American's ability to kill and mechanize the process.
Should we repeat it for the rest of time? If we are going to repeat that injustice of mankind upon mankind then maybe we should also re fight other injustices. Or, better yet we can channel our energy into fighting REAL current injustice.
The bible is a wasteland of primitive urges and trashy spoken novels (some call it oral history finally put on paper once paper was invented) from a time when man thought the world was flat and he was the center of the universe rather than PART of a functioning interdependent whole. Shake and make up, never forget, but get over the hurts of the past or we are doomed to suffer the hurts of the now.
The answer to MOST of our problems is to maintain a sustainable population first, and educate ALL second, only from that will flow the peace and justice that we seek.
