Re: Morality for all not just some
quite a strawman there. And way off topic, especially with your bullshit 7 institutions claim you tried to sneak in there.
Try responding without lying next time.

Re: Morality for all not just some
Again, this is part of your strawman.
I know exactly what society means and what it doesn't.
It does not mean that an individual must depend on a group for survival or that if that individual chooses to leave the group they will necessarily die.

wtf?
What is this revisionist history bullshit about how slavery was not so bad? This is on par with holocaust denying.
If you find yourself defending slavery, you are on the wrong side of the road. You people are fucking bonkers.

Re: slavery
What is being judged is your after-the-fact rationalization in a sad attempt to justify the unjustifiable.
You are not among the gods. There can be no accusation of defience by you when you are judged.
You accept slavery as long as your god requires it? fine. But don't say you are making a moral judgment. You, in your fear and groveling, are accepting an amoral position simply because to refuse such a position would be questioning "God."
Neither are you courageous, wise, righteous or morally sound. Your worthlessness to the collective effort for a moral society has been measured precisely.

Re: slavery
The truth is sometimes kind. In this case, it is not. Whether you try to shrug it off or ignore it, it still remains the truth.

Re: ...and for the victims...?
This whole sentiment is quite ironic coming from you.
You are in no position to be questioning other people's stats or accusing them of lying.
