Ah, so because Africans enslaved each other, Americans should feel no
pain about our national heritage of enslaving/slaughtering/exploiting
others? Does not compute. Just because slavery has existed in many
societies, justified by many doctrines, enriching many directly and
indirectly, doesn't mean that slavery is GOOD. Slavery means OWNING
other human beings, and in much of the world today, especially the
societies that are effecting the increased prosperity of humanity,
that notion sucks. Slave societies today are impoverished, isolated,
disease-ridden, for slave and master alike. Whoever likes slavery
is most welcome to their short and brutish lives, u-betcha. >>
Nothing in Sobran's article said that slavery was good or that anyone other
than the slaves and slavers had any regard for it. Man's inhumanity to man
takes many forms. Slavery does not appear to be the worst of them. The
ownership of human beings also takes many forms. Slavery is just the one
that can be most clearly observed. Prudy

CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list. Proselyzting propagandic
screeds are not allowed. Substance�not soapboxing! These are sordid matters
and 'conspiracy theory', with its many half-truths, misdirections and outright
frauds is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects
spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRL
gives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers;
be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credeence to Holocaust denial and
nazi's need not apply.
