RE: Danger! Danger! Even the bible has been manipulated by the feudal masters to gain control and power!

Danger! Danger!.... I was half expecting Robbie the robot from Lost in Space to pop out ! We are all susceptible to error and misinterpretation. It's in the researching that the true value is gained. I loved the knowledge of knowing the amount of work that you put into this post. It was informative and riveting to read. You can read the Bible in a multitude of ways, sometimes in a way that is polar opposite of what its true intent. Thanks for a great read.

lol. I'm not familiar with that robot, but I am familiar with Twiki from Buck Rogers.

I am glad you enjoyed the post. Indeed there is a lot of room for error and misinterpretation. That is why I did so much research. But in the end I still have to follow my heart and listen to how it feels about this whole topic. To me, it does not resonate with me that we are supposed to be slaves. That bothers me to the core of my spirit. In the end I still have to filter everything through my bull shit detector. Does it fit with 'love my neighbour as myself'? Slavery never fits that filter.

How true! Following one's heart and listening within one's self is critical on this journey that we call life. I studied many religions ( my Father was a Minister of the Church) and there was a two year period where I was totally engrossed within it. I made it a point to only listen to those who have spent a life time within their particular religions, as this gave me the benefit of their wisdom and I always felt that I was learning from those who were well versed within those religions. Ultimately in the end I came up with conclusions that suited me. We all have a sense of whats right and wrong. We instinctively know whats right and pursue only whats right. My conclusions were very simple and easy. Irrespective of Religion, loving your fellow man is right, rectifying injustices is right, to help one another is right. I suspect that God wants us all to not only love Him but to love each other as well. Slavery is as far removed from loving thy neighbor as you could ever possibly get. Loved your reply. Thank you
