river said:Well now Sam and Sek you got to be reasonable. The average slave has no money. For God to champion the cause of a class of people who have no money while at the same time alienating those who do have money by depriving them o their profit would mean the religions in question could not support itself and would not be popular among the "best" of societies. Therefore it behooved God to knuckle under to the desires of slave mastes. I mean one doesn't want to lose the cream of the crop just for morality's sake
