It isnt really un christian technicly. As much as we'd like to think it is considering how vile a practice slavery is. But just as Christians finally saw the end of slavery (in America anyway) They also saw the beginning of it (Again, in America)They took it from the ancient Romans and made it so much worse. In ancient times, slaves were the people of the conquered nations of Rome, and the Romans generally treated them very well. Even making them Roman citizens after a period of time, so it was a bit like the endentured servitude of the early Americas. Christians perverted the alrady amoral practice into enslaving entire tribes for life because they felt they were "Heathens" and doomed to hell anyway. Although we are now much more enlightened, and most of us know that no one person is better than another, in those days they saw the slaves as inferior, which was as much a midieval prejudice as a Christian one.

Christian helped abolish slavery, and Marie Antoinette was born during the wrong era. How dare you?

The Christians I have known ----------
Many believe that the Bible condones slavery, and that the dark skinned people were put here to be the slaves of the better class, white people.
And, I doubt if any of them cared enough for anything outside their here, now, and mine little nucleus to know anything about Marie Antoinette, except she was once a French queen.

I don't know about un-christian, but you are definitely a bigot if you think that slavery should never have been abolished.

Slavery was condoned by the so-called White Christians, so stop trying to hide the truth. Revelation speaks of all truths being revealed in the last days. Well, welcome to the last days of lies, deceit, and bloodshed. Thank Almighty God, for the total destruction of Racism. A'Men!!!

In the USA, Christians spearheaded the abolition of human slavery. So, yes, endorsing slavery is anti-Christian.

It is not appropriate to use any religion's views to pass moral judgments. The only sound basis of a moral code is something that can be demonstrated to be true and used to derive logical and definite conclusions. Evolution qualifies; it applies to societies as well as to species, and a society with a sound moral code will survive preferentially to one that does not. it follows that the moral standard of judgment should be: does this thing enhance society, degrade society, or not have any substantial effect on the overall survival and success of society?

The Bible condones slavery in many passages. Not good for a perfect book written by God.
