Gah! SLOW IT DOWN!
Firefox always does that. YTMND is a mess without flash sync. Some are made for FF, some IE. I think IE's GIF speed is more correct. It's as if FF ignores some standard frame delay when one isn't specified and plays it completely unthrottled while IE gives a reasonable delay.

The bible has specific instructions on how you're allowed to treat your slaves.


It was translated and you are assuming the same definition of a word when you know it's not that simple. Indentured servitude was common and people routinely offered themselves as indentured servants or were forced to as punishment or restitution for crimes and such. It wasn't at all like the slave trade. It was more like in-home paid hospice care or a court jester performing and pleasing in exchange for food, room, and board. Even then, they weren't used to form an involuntary work force like the Egyptians did.

Honestly. Only manipulative idiots believe that the Bible condones "slavery" just because it has a few passages about treating servants humanely.

“If you buy a Hebrew servant, he is to serve you for six years. But in the seventh year, he shall go free, without paying anything. 3 If he comes alone, he is to go free alone; but if he has a wife when he comes, she is to go with him. 4 If his master gives him a wife and she bears him sons or daughters, the woman and her children shall belong to her master, and only the man shall go free.
5 “But if the servant declares, ‘I love my master and my wife and children and do not want to go free,’ 6 then his master must take him before the judges.[a] He shall take him to the door or the doorpost and pierce his ear with an awl. Then he will be his servant for life.

7 “If a man sells his daughter as a servant, she is not to go free as male servants do. 8 If she does not please the master who has selected her for himself, he must let her be redeemed. He has no right to sell her to foreigners, because he has broken faith with her. 9 If he selects her for his son, he must grant her the rights of a daughter. 10 If he marries another woman, he must not deprive the first one of her food, clothing and marital rights. 11 If he does not provide her with these three things, she is to go free, without any payment of money. Exodus 21

Fine. Let's do it your way.
When a man strikes his male or female slave with a rod so hard that the slave dies under his hand, he shall be punished. If, however, the slave survives for a day or two, he is not to be punished, since the slave is his own property.

Replace the word "slave" with "indentured servant" and see if that makes it less morally repugnant.



BTW Peter Dinklage is the shit.
