Would you willingly be somebodies slave? At four different times in my life, I've had people volunteer to be my slave. Three were female and one was (like me) male. In all four cases I was in some sort of a supervisory position over the other person. Withe the three young ladies, I was teaching at the university and they were students. The fellow was a contractor's person working for me under contract.
In all four cases I gently declined, it being a moral issue for me. All these people were between 19 and 22, while I was 28 through 45.
I have never felt the need to subjugate myself to another person. Quite the opposite in fact.
Is this a common thing? Or was it pheromones on a grand scale? | | I know one particular person that i would be a slave to. But, I don't think it is a common thing. | Does God agree with slavery? Exodus chapter 12 verse 43:
The Lord said to Moses and Aaron, "These are the regulations for the Passover: No foreigner is to eat of it. Any slave you have bought may eat of it after you have circumcised him, but a temporary resident and a hired worker may not eat of it.
God again shows that he is completely comfortable with the concept of slavery and singles out slaves for special treatment.
Exodus Chapter 21, verse 20:
If a man beats his male or female slave with a rod and the slave dies as a direct result, he must be punished, but he is not to be punished if the slave gets up after a day or two, since the slave is his property.
Not only does God condone slavery, but he is also completely comfortable with the concept of beating your slaves, as long as you don't kill them.
Luke, Chapter 7, verse 2:
Now a centurion had a slave who was dear to him, who was sick and at the point of death. When he heard of Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, asking him to come and heal his slave. And when they came to Jesus, they besought him earnestly, saying, "He is worthy to have you do this for him, for he loves our nation, and he built us our synagogue." And Jesus went with them. When he was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying to him, "Lord, do not trouble yourself, for I am not worthy to have you come under my roof; therefore I did not presume to come to you. But say the word, and let my servant be healed. For I am a man set under authority, with soldiers under me: and I say to one, 'Go,' and he goes; and to another, 'Come,' and he comes; and to my slave, 'Do this,' and he does it." When Jesus heard this he marveled at him, and turned and said to the multitude that followed him, "I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such faith." And when those who had been sent returned to the house, they found the slave well.
Here Jesus shows that he is completely comfortable with the concept of slavery. Jesus heals the slave without any thought of freeing the slave or admonishing the slave's owner.
Colossians, chapter 3, verse 22:
Slaves, obey in everything those who are your earthly masters, not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but in singleness of heart, fearing the Lord. Whatever your task, work heartily...
Here God shows that he is in complete acceptance of a slave's position, and encourages slaves to work hard.
If the Bible is written by God, and these are the words of the Lord, then you can come to only one possible conclusion: God is an impressive advocate of slavery and is fully supportive of the concept. | | looks like he/she is for it | When Michele Bachmann claimed the Founding Fathers "worked tirelessly to end slavery"...? Was she talking about one of Thomas Jefferson's energy-consuming sexual positions with one of his hundreds of female slaves? | She is a liar and an idiot.
The founding fathers enshrined slavery in the constitution for 80 years to come. We had to kick hillbilly traitor anus to get rid of it. | Black people white people what do you think about this? This is the Willie Lynch Letter
I have a foolproof method for controlling your Black slaves. I guarantee every one of you that if installed correctly, it will control the slaves for at least 300 hundred years. I use fear, distrust and envy for control purposes. The Black slave after receiving this indoctrination shall carry on and will self-refueling and self-generating for hundreds of years maybe thousands. Don’t forget , you must pitch the old Black male vs. the young Black male…the dark skin slaves vs. the light skin slaves…the female against the male and male vs. the female. Take the meanest and most restless ******, strip him of his clothes in front of the remaining male *******, the female, and the ****** infant, tar and feather him, tie each leg to a different horse in opposite directions, set him a fire and beat both horses to pull him apart in from of the remaining *******. The next step is to take the bullwhip and beat the remaining ****** males to the point of death in front of the female and the infant. Don’t kill them, but put the ear of God in him, for he can be useful for future breeding. Then take the female run a series of test on her to see if she will submit to your desires willingly. Test her in every way because she is the most important factor for good economics. If she shows any sign of resistance in submitting completely to your will, do not hesitate to use the bullwhip on her to exact the last bit of ***** out of her. When in complete submission, she will train her (male) offspring in the early years to submit to labor when they become of age. Understanding is the best thing. There fore we shall go deeper into this area of the subject matter concerning what we have produced here in this breaking process of the female ******. We have reversed the relationships. In her natural uncivilized state she would have a strong dependency on the uncivilized ****** male, and she would have a limited protective tendency toward her independent male offspring and would raise the female offspring to be dependent like her. Nature has provided for this type of balance. We reversed nature by burning and pulling one civilized ****** apart and bull whipping the other to the point of death in her presence. By her being left alone, unprotected, with the male image destroyed, the ordeal caused her to move from her psychological dependent state to a frozen independent state…(where) she will raise her male and female offspring in reversal roles. For fear of the young male’s life, she will psychologically train him to be mentally weak and dependent but physically strong because she has become psychologically independent, she will train her female offspring to be psychologically independent. What have you got? You’ve got a ****** woman out front and the man behind and scared. This is a perfect situation for sound sleep and economics. By the time a ****** boy reaches the age of sixteen, he is soundly broken in and ready for life’s sound and efficient work and the reproduction of a unit of good labor force…by killing of the protective male image by creating a submissive dependent mind of the ****** male savage, we have created an orbiting cycle that turns in its own axis forever, unless a phenomenon occurs and reshifts the positions of the female savages…that is good, sound, and long range comprehensive planning.
Notice He says that slaveowners should promote hatred between black men and females and between light and darkskinned blacks. He said that they should have the role switched in the black home so that black man would be behind his woman." For fear of the young male’s life, she will psychologically train him to be mentally weak and dependent but physically strong because she has become psychologically independent, she will train her female offspring to be psychologically independent". Do you think his plan is actually working as black men seem to fall behind while black women seem to go foward. | | To be totally honest I have never read this before. Is this a real historical document? If it is it's disgusting. A side from physically abusing, mutilating and murdering for the sake of terrifying another human into submission, this letter writer is evil to his soul. | Is it true that there is a 24/7 toilet slave? I just wonder if there exists male slaves who are willing and do actually serve as Female Mistresses' permanent/ full time toilet.
how is the everyday lives of those slaves??? I heard that the toilet slaves are immobilized, motionless, shackled in a permanent position? i just wonder how the toilet slaves themselves would do if they want to take a pee, ****, or take a bath or something else if the condition is like that??? and how is the psychology of the toilet slaves for doing that? and also how could a lady do such a degrading thing to males? what were they thinking anyway??? please those experienced on toilet slavery answer this question...thanks alot | when your talking 24/7 obviously your not gonna be shackled and unable to move at all ever. of course you are able to move and do other stuff but will need to be there to be toilet slave or any kind of slave
basically why do men and women do it,because its a fetish what they enjoy, just because it's not what other people may do and it's certainly something i could personally do, but each to their own | Question for Christians - are you able to defend God's Law regarding Slavery? Leviticus 25:44 And as for your male and female slaves whom you may have—from the nations that are around you, from them you may buy male and female slaves. (NKJV)
So some of the people I talk to dispute that the God of the Bible told this to Moses, since we feel slavery is immorral. This calls into question Moses's intergrity. It has been stated here on yahoo answers that slavery was different then. There has been some answers to my questions telling me that these Christians are lieing, that slavery back then was no different then that it was in 1800s America. See Exodus 21:20-21 (NKJV)
20 “And if a man beats his male or female servant with a rod, so that he dies under his hand, he shall surely be punished. 21 Notwithstanding, if he remains alive a day or two, he shall not be punished; for he is his property
Would any Christian like to defend the position that God said to Moses it was ok to have slaves? And the owner could beat the slave with a rod and not be punished? | God said a lot of things back then that have evolved to more civil and sophisticated intellectual positions in the present.
You know, you used to wet your diaper, so why do you think it is okay to do so.
America used to allow slavery and we regret it now, but I'll be darned if you will hold me to account for what someone else did.
You ask good questions sometimes. This one is cute, but useless. | God loves slavery......? Here are ten passages from the Bible that clearly demonstrate God's position on slavery:
Genesis chapter 17, verse 12:
And he that is eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every man guy in your generations, he that is born in the house, or bought with money of any stranger, which is not of thy seed. He that is born in thy house, and he that is bought with thy money, must needs be circumcised.
In this passage God understands that people buy other people and, quite obviously, is comfortable with the concept. God wants slaves circumcised in the same way as non-slaves.
Exodus chapter 12 verse 43:
The Lord said to Moses and Aaron, "These are the regulations for the Passover: No foreigner is to eat of it. Any slave you have bought may eat of it after you have circumcised him, but a temporary resident and a hired worker may not eat of it.
God again shows that he is completely comfortable with the concept of slavery and singles out slaves for special treatment.
Exodus Chapter 21, verse 1:
Now these are the ordinances which you shall set before them. When you buy a Hebrew slave, he shall serve six years, and in the seventh he shall go out free, for nothing. If he comes in single, he shall go out single; if he comes in married, then his wife shall go out with him. If his master gives him a wife and she bears him sons or daughters, the wife and her guyren shall be her master's and he shall go out alone. But if the slave plainly says, 'I love my master, my wife, and my guyren; I will not go out free,' then his master shall bring him to God, and he shall bring him to the door or the doorpost; and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl; and he shall serve him for life.
Here God describes how to become a slave for life, and shows that it is completely acceptable to separate slaves from their families. God also shows that he completely endorses the branding of slaves through mutilation.
Exodus Chapter 21, verse 20:
If a man beats his male or female slave with a rod and the slave dies as a direct result, he must be punished, but he is not to be punished if the slave gets up after a day or two, since the slave is his property.
Not only does God condone slavery, but he is also completely comfortable with the concept of beating your slaves, as long as you don't kill them.
Exodus Chapter 21, verse 32:
If the bull gores a male or female slave, the owner must pay thirty shekels of silver to the master of the slave, and the bull must be stoned.
Not only does God condone slavery, but here God places a value on slaves -- 30 shekels of silver. Note that God is not sophisticated enough to understand the concept of inflation. It is now 3,000 years later, and a gored slave is still worth 30 shekels of silver according to God's word.
Leviticus Chapter 22, verse 10:
No one outside a priest's family may eat the sacred offering, nor may the guest of a priest or his hired worker eat it. But if a priest buys a slave with money, or if a slave is born in his household, that slave may eat his food.
Here God shows that the guyren of slaves are slaves themselves, and that he is completely happy with that concept.
Leviticus Chapter 25, verse 44:
Your male and female slaves are to come from the nations around you; from them you may buy slaves. You may also buy some of the temporary residents living among you and members of their clans born in your country, and they will become your property. You can will them to your guyren as inherited property and can make them slaves for life, but you must not rule over your fellow Israelites ruthlessly.
Here God states where you may purchase your slaves, and clearly specifies that slaves are property to be bought, sold and handed down.
Luke, Chapter 7, verse 2:
Now a centurion had a slave who was dear to him, who was sick and at the point of death. When he heard of Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, asking him to come and heal his slave.

SOME INFO:
Culture of Traders
The Arabs had been traders for centuries before their empire developed. Muhammad himself had been a trader. It is not surprising, then, that trade was important to Muslim culture. The empire was at the center of a world trade network that linked Europe, Asia, and Africa. India and China sent goods to ports in Syria and Egypt.
As trade grew, other cultures increasingly demanded the quality goods that Muslims produced, such as textiles manufactured from silk, cotton, and wool, as well as beautiful woven tapestries and carpets. Muslims also made metal products from gold and silver. Steel swords from Damascus and from the Spanish city of Toledo became world famous. Luxuries such as jewelry, perfumes, and spices were in great demand. Muslim artisans produced pottery and glassware. Artisans in North Africa and Spain made fine leather goods. All this trade made the Islamic Empire wealthy.
Muslims exchanged ideas with other cultures as well. Both Córdoba and Toledo in Spain were famous centers of learning. Christian and Jewish scholars carried Muslim ideas from Spain into western Europe. Sicily under the Muslims was known for its astronomers and geographers. They, too, influenced Europeans. Many Europeans, in fact, viewed the Muslim world as a source of advanced knowledge in many scientific areas and in banking and commerce.
Government and Society
Under Arab rule, the Muslim Empire was organized into provinces. At first one caliph headed the government. Disagreement over succession to the position developed, however. In time, these disputes led to the breakup of the empire into three areas, or caliphates. The caliphates were ruled by caliphs in Baghdad, Cairo, and Córdoba.
Muslims throughout the Islamic Empire lived according to the Qur'an. It guided both their religious life and daily life—there was no separation. The Qur'an gave detailed instructions about how society should be organized and how people should live. All Muslims were expected to follow the Islamic laws in public and private life.
Slavery was common in Arabia. The Qur'an urged Muslims to free their slaves. Those who chose to keep slaves were required to treat them humanely. No free Muslim could be enslaved, and the guyren of a female slave and her master were free.
The family was the core of Muslim daily life. Muslims showed concern for all members of their family—parents, guyren, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. They particularly respected the elderly. In Islamic families everyone had specific roles and duties. Men were responsible for the family's needs.
Parents usually arranged marriages for their guyren. However, the Qur'an gave a woman the right to refuse the arrangement. The groom was required to give his bride a marriage gift of property or money.
It was common in Arabia for a man to have several wives. The Qur'an restricted a Muslim man to four wives, and he had to treat them equally. In fact, the Qur'an gave women more rights than they had received under traditional Arab law. For example, if a woman got divorced, she kept her own money and was free to remarry. She could also inherit money and own property. Muslim women enjoyed more freedom than most women at the time. Later, however, women began to be secluded and lost some rights.
The government supported schools and libraries. The family and the mosque also took responsibility for education. A person who could speak and write well was thought to be educated. Students attended religious study groups at the mosque. Advanced students could attend schools established for the study of science, mathematics, or law.
Medicine. Some of the most important contributions that Muslims made were to medical science. They studied the work of the famous Greek physicians Hippocrates and Galen. Then they added to what the Greeks had done.
Scientific advances in the use of herbs, foods, and prepared drugs added to the Islamic world's vast store of medical knowledge. Some of this early Muslim work in the development and preparation of pharmaceutical drugs is still in use today. In some cases, techniques such as distillation that were first used by Muslim scientists to prepare medical drugs are also followed by today's manufacturers.
Muslim doctors achieved great progress in the techniques of dissection to study anatomy. They also developed improved surgical instruments and processes. The Muslim surgeon Abu al-Qasim, for example, practiced in Islamic Spain, in the city of Córdoba. His work did much to | The Islamic Empire influenced the development of world history. As Muslims of the Islamic Empire expanded their empire, they were open to the ideas and customs of the people they conquered. Along with these ideas and customs were those from Greece, Rome and Asia which influenced and became a part of Muslim culture. Each conquered civilization had its own importance to the development of the Islamic Empire and how it made major advancements. The developments and advancements in science made during the time of the Islamic Empire include medicine, geography and mathematics. The Islamic Empire influenced the development of world history.
In the Islamic Empire, Muslims made significant contributions to medical science by studying the Greek physicians. After the Muslims had studied the works written by the main Greek physicians, Hippocrates and Galen, they added their findings to the Greeks’ works. Muslims used herbs and foods to develop and prepare drugs. They used and created techniques, such as the process of distillation, which are still used today to manufacture pharmaceutical drugs. Muslim doctors learned through dissection and the study of anatomy. Surgical standards, ideas of personal hygiene and how to correctly diagnose illnesses rose during the Islamic Empire. In the Islamic Empire, the first exams in order to legally practice medicine were given to insure doctors had medical knowledge. The first school of pharmacy and an encyclopedia of drugs were created in the Islamic Empire. A doctor, in the Islamic Empire, Ibn Sina wrote. the encyclopedic Canon of Medicine, which was used into the 1650s. As the Islamic Empire spread, Muslims’ knowledge of medical science also spread. Medicine
is as important in the modern world today as it was in the Islamic Empire years ago. Medicine has enabled us to inoculated and vaccinate against diseases, advances more and more through research, such as complex surgeries, such as organ transplants, to be completed successfully and as a direct result the saving of a life. Medicine, through the study of anatomy, has allowed us to learn more and more about the human body.
In the Islamic Empire, many Muslims were traders; therefore, they traveled in the empire and explored distant lands. Because of the need for navigation advancements, Muslims took interest in astronomy, navigation, and maps and developed advancements. Muslims in the Islamic Empire first used and studied maps drafted by the Greeks and later, as they learned more about the land they conquered, they added improvements and constructed more maps. The Muslim geographers were they first to use measurements and scales to make the most accurate maps. A geographer of the Islamic Empire, al-Idrisi, was the first to combine maps of past and present findings which included the geographic features. A Greek invention adopted by the Muslims was the astrolabe, a small instrument called which allowed observers to chart the positions of the stars and thus calculate their own position on Earth. Muslim enhanced the astrolabe. Astronomy, navigation, and maps are as important in the modern world today as it was in the Islamic Empire years ago. Without navigation methods and maps traveling distances accurately would be near impossible. Because of advancements in navigation as well as in transportation, traveling has been made easier, faster and more affordable.
In the Islamic Empire, Muslims learned a number system from Inda. The number system had ten fugures, which included zero which meant an empty place value. It was Muslims in the Islamic Empire who first mixed the Indian number system with the Greek science of mathematics. Europeans called this system “Arabic”. This Arabic numeral system is used today. Muslims also borrowed the idea of decimals from India. Algebra, which is known as al-jabr meaning “restoring”, is a worldwide concept that is taught as a part of the arithmetic curriculum in schools. Mathematics is as important in the modern world today as it was in the Islamic Empire years ago. Mathematics paved the path for other branches of science and provide an accuracy that otherwise wouldn’t be avalible. Mathematics is a stable, unchanging concept that is necessary in everyday life, such as counting, telling time and exchange of money and goods.
It is evident that the advancements made in the Islamic Empire influenced the civilizations that followed and its remains (developments and advancements) are a part of our modern world today. The Islamic Empire influenced the development of world history. The civilizations conquered by the Muslims had important influences on the development and advancements of the Islamic Empire. The developments and advancements in science made during the time of the Islamic Empire included medicine, geography and mathematics. | Was Thomas Jefferson a rapist? he had sex with at least one of his female slaves.
