Entry: Bloody kansas Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/bloody_kansas#8085 Post contents: Ohhh, good Lord, what bad theology and moralizing people. Slavery is NOT a sin. Never was. The Early Christian Church NEVER NEVER condemned slavery. In the Ecumencal councils, any slave that wanted to be a cleric had to get permission from his owner. The catholic orthodox apostolic Church has never condemned slavery. Slavery is NOT morally wrong. The Old Testament actually has laws that guide it. So NO slavery is not wrong. It is a progressive leftist idea that it is! I fail to see how any of you are conservatives at all! The Eastern Orthodox Church has never condemned slavery! Nor will God ever! NOWHERE in Scripture is slavery condemned! So where you people get your training from, I don't know because it ain't Holy Tradition!!!! There is NO analogy between slavery and abortion. Slavery is an INSTITUTION like marriage, like the military, like the family, like any other institution. An Institution is NOT a personal act like abortion. Abortion is NOT an institution but a personal act. Abortion is ending human life. Solely on that basis is it immoral. And yes, Novak got it wrong. There were no rebels in Kansas. It was factions of liberal heretics, the abolitionists, against the Old Order Christians. Sent at: 2008 07 09
