The same Christian government that allowed slaves? Wouldn't allow women to vote? Really Guys?

That's not very Christian like is it?

America was founded on Christian principles. No where have I ever heard anybody refer to our government as being Christian before you posted it. None the less, those principles should guide our elected officials. Even Bill Clinton goes to church once on a while to sort of get his moral compass tweeked a little. If it can be clearly shown that some governmental action violates the scriptures in point or in practice, I believe we would be far better off to abandon that particular course of action.

But, to your point, men have made slaves of other men since the beginning of time. History is full of mention about slavery. The point about slavery that we are not allowed to mention in these politically correct days, is the fact that the majority of slaves were not treated badly and, they were not generally an unhappy lot. Do you ever check up on all this stuff or do you just lap up the liberal drivel ladled out by what ever prof is in front of you?
