<"I haven't heard any reason why an atheist would find slavery immoral?">

But aren't there all sorts of cultures that Christians theologians often accuse of being essentially atheistic (China for example, Buddhism and Taoism are called all sorts of things including simply a "psychology") that wrestle with and indeed have "moral" reasons not to have slavery??

Just asking.... it seems many Chistians seem to think that "morality" is a Christian invention? Is that what you're saying?

For example:

<<I don't believe in the enlightenment claim. Its just a matter of arrogance.

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