6) THOUSANDS of WHITE Americans gave their lives BELIEVING they were fighting for the freedom and dignity of blacks during the civil war but THIS fact seems to have been forgotten...

7) As shameful as black slavery was the white Irish slavery outnumbered black slavery considerably.

8) The Chickasaw indians were the LAST in America to free their slaves, LONG after the passage of the 13th Amendment.

9) Hundred of thousands of blacks are STILL slaves in many muslim countries.

10) Blacks owned white and black slaves too so where are WHITE SLAVERY REPARATIONS?!? ENOUGH with the RACIST "white privilege" rhetoric and "victim" mentality, please. BLACK Slavery is still happening today in islam but NO ONE is talking about that....

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Think any of this would have happened if god had “thou shalt not own another human being” in its top 10?


Or in any of the 613?

It's there under, thou shall not kill. Owning someone is killing their freedom.

I don't know about that. I have read that it was worse for the Irish who came here than it was for a black person after the civil war. No one would hire the Irish at all----as in---"No Irish need apply. Blacks could at least get work to do.

#1 always cracks me up. THE most important commandment was to illustrate how vain, needy and insecure this god was.

Not vain, deserving, He created everything, he gave all life for free and asks that one listen to his advice. Few do. Few know him-John 15:20-21) This world is so blind-99% are mislead. Jesus compared these last days to Noahs day( 99% mislead)The world is falling apart quickly--Gods kingdom is mankinds only remaining hope. The bible says the arrival of Gods kingdom rule is good news.

Do you ever have anything to say besides how you and your buds are going to be saved and the rest of us are doomed?

We get it. You're special. We're doomed. We know this is the JW belief. There's no reason to say it over and over and over again.
