T8, why do you think I'm rebelling. Perhaps I just want to bring slavery back, biblical style. Slavery even though illegal still exists in some places. If I have the money, why wouldn't I want slaves? There seem no reasons beyond the legality of it, Right.

Quote (t8 @ Mar. 16 2014,14:15)If it doesn't help me or save my life, then I would rather pass on that one.T8. Why do you keep saying to hit or beat you if it saves your lifeDo you believe that this is what slavery (of the forced nature) was about–saving lives?
