Slavery and the Bible: resource
We argue about this topic from time to time. Semeia had a special issue devoted to it. The archive is here with issues on several different topics. This journal was once an SBL journal and is now a book series. Top stuff!

It never ceases to amaze me that doctrines designed to maintain slavery (such as those found in the sacrificial doctrines of Judaism and the alleged "non-violence" doctrine incorrectly "exegeted" from Christianty) are usually the ones most embraced by slaves.
:huh: Ahhh well. The paradox of cognitive dissonance never ends. |

I wonder how many uber-capitalists are slaves to their personal debt?
