[Vision2020] McBrooms at NSA

[Donovan Arnold]

Mr. McBroom writes,

"There is no need to apologize for the system of slavery ordained by God in 
the Bible."

Please explain to me Mr. McBroom, where God says, "It is OK to own another 
person".

I am also wondering how it is possible to obey the will of God, and the will 
of another Man at the same time.

Can you answer how one can love they neighbor as thy self, and still keep 
them as a slave? Would you want to remain a slave? Wouldn't you free 
yourself? If your brother, mother, father, sister, or child was a slave and 
you had the ability to free them, would you not? If you would not wish this 
on your family, and God loves your family more than you, then God must 
despise slavery more than any man that ever existed.

Slavery is a human made invention. No other animals own another animal. It 
is not God created.

Donovan J Arnold

PS, even if the Bible clearly says, you can own another person, this would 
be one of those times when you use your brain and act accordingly. Slavery 
is BAD, very Bad, it is oppressive, and robs a person of their identity and 
self worth. By the fruits of YOUR labor shall you live, not the fruits of 
your slaves labor.
