I won't comment on polygamy for now. I would treat that one
differently. But I would tend to agree on slavery. It's always morally
problematic. So the in terms of eternal moral principles, its always
been questionable. But in the past, economic necessity made it
difficult to prohibit categorically.
The moral principles haven't changed. But the situation has.
