Ok ok. I’ll join in (he said wearily)
I suppose it depends on what their life was like elsewhere. Slave Labour, although wrong, is a feature of many parts of the world and if it’s that or the starvation of your family, it’s the lesser of two evils.
There.
What will probably happen now, Wideweb (welcome to Answerbank btw) is that someone will try to lay all the world’s ills at my door for stating it exists without a shred of a suggestion as to what to do about it.

Dubia is somewhere between Dubai and Nubia

yearn and yearn agoo .... there was a secluded part of the airport where the boys were off-loaded. has anyone noticed that it is no good decolonizing somewhere ( Dubia say) and then saying

// They could be displaced descendants of those from Nubia but with a heavy cold.//
o come on come on Doug - you miss a clear reference to de Saussure on the sign thread and then suggest Dubia is somewhere George Dubya Bush laid his head
( you know like Monrovia er the capital of Liberia is named after Pres Monroe)
I dont see that we can re invade the place ....

Why pick on Dubai? Read the history of slavery and see how early it started in Africa (the Portuguese in the early 16th century? Wrong.) And see how late it ended at least de jure.
The abolitionist spirit arrived in Mauretania late, but with sufficient zeal once adopted that it was proscribed under various legal formulations at least three times in the last century.

I dont think it has ended de jure .... in er fact
slaves existed in the NT and I dont think there are any biblical restrictions are there?
[altho in the Early Church there may have been unease that slaves were praying along with their master]
Oman Ethopia and Sudan spring to mind
and the chibuki girls - the christians were sold into slavery innit?

Acceptance, not prescription. And there is a moral point in the epistles: "There is neither Jew nor Greek, male nor female, slave nor free". Which leads to an obvious conclusion when it comes to treating our fellow human beings.
Anyway, back to the PP post, we're comparing what, exactly? 1st century Christianity v 7th century Islam. Is that it? Or the strictures or endorsement of their holy texts? Is that it? Or the history of the slave trade pracitised by one or the other from whenever to whatever? Is that it?
