According to your biblical argument, that means slavery was OK, except that you seem to have only one other problem with it - that being the racial differences between the slaves and masters.
Are you trying to tell me US slavery would have been OK if we had only raided a poor white country for slaves?

The majority of people condone slavery everyday with their actions and spending habits. People call it capitolism and it is way too common. To say slavery is wrong is useless. I can sit in my chair all day and say thatfast food is bad for me, but it goes outthe window the next time I order a Big Mac.
