"A freethinker today has no more reason to reject slavery than one did centuries ago."

Have you been asleep or drunk for the last hundred posts? Most people in ancient Greece were not rationally convinced it was wrong. Most people today (with 2000 years of discussion and human rights progress to lean on) know it to be immoral.

You are basically suggesting that modern people should be held only to the most primitive moral standards (if any)--and that is just plain nutty.
