the bible says so

No more than the whites, Chinese, Greeks, or any other race. Israelites were slaves under the Egyptians; the Chinese treated AS slaves, getting LOW PAY for HUNDREDS of years in America. The list could go on and on and on. This really is a non issue.

The bible also says it is acceptable to heap hot coals on the head of your enemy, if you have God's approval. The bible also advocates beating your child, slavery, and other things that are socially unacceptable today. Also, those bloodlines are not real. The bible is not meant for literal interpretation. It was written thousands of years ago, and some things were embellished/have become outdated. No one should take a rod to their kid's head if they disobey. However, if you take the bible literally, you are going to whip the hell out of your kid. Obviously, not a good idea. Same with bloodlines. They were used as tool to show the the advancement/dispersion of different cultures. They were not meant to be used as factual genetic guides.

Yeah. They broke God's law, so did we. That's why we are cursed with them. They won't go home and they won't quit acting like slaves.

Bible is NOT the word of GOD! So throw that book into the trash bin.

Kind of, as a curse. But we should try to treat them equally.
