!@#$ me...
birddog, you claim to be in your 50's. Congratulations. Welcome to "logic".
Rather than watch you flail around for another 70 years, given your leaning curve, I'll give you a quick lesson:
Logic is not a weapon: It's a way of creating a consistent understanding.
A singular argument, isolated in a vacuum using the logic of the vacuum, cannot be subject to the world outside of your vacuum.
All arguments, if you seek to make them logically consistent, are interconnected by the underpinning logic you use to make them.
You cannot use logic to make a single argument, and then claim that the same logic does not apply to the next.
Now, I'll ask my question again, for the third time:
Why do you believe slavery to be morally wrong?
