Slavery is easy to justify if you take a literal Paul interpretation, but I'm curious about the racism bit (at least, the racism we deal with in the US, since I don't know as much about racism in other places, but I know it was Biblically justified once upon a time).

In a similar vein, it's kind of amusing but mostly sad to see my conservative friends/acquaintances bend over backwards to put "context" around Paul's words regarding slavery while they insist on taking the bits about homosexuality literally. If these same people had lived 150 years ago (or maybe even more recently), you can bet they'd be singing a different tune about the slavery passages.

Even then, it's been argued that he was talking about indentured servitude rather than slavery.

[diet_poison]

Well yeah, but only if you're to be bothered with silly things like translation inadequacies, since the NIV literally uses the word "slaves"

[(Anonymous)]

...the NIV...it is...not...a good translation. (I am feeling charitable and therefore will say no more.)

[(Anonymous)]

What is your preferred translation?

[diet_poison]

But it's a translation people use. I'm not talking about actual text/meaning, I'm talking about people justifying behavior based on the Bible.
