re: #108 calochortus

Can you provide a reference on that? I’ll understand if its too time consuming at the moment.

Well… Do not steal.

You are not allowed to steal another mans property or labor.

Do not steal explicitly forbids chattel slavery.

Further though,

We believe that all men (read mankind, the bible says man and woman both) were created in the image of G-d. To defile another man is to defile God. To claim that you own a man is to claim you own God.

From that view, slavery is an abomination.
