Hi,
I just wanted to say that as far as I understand, there are different situations that are referred to as "slavery;" a person can WILLINGLY (MADE THE FREE CHOICE TO) be the servant of someone and can be referred to as a "slave." And a person can be FORCED AGAINST HIS/HER WILL to be the servant of someone and can be called a "slave." The evil is not in being a servant; the evil is in forcing someone against his/her will to be your servant. WILLING servants are being referred to as "modern day slaves" in some countries, if I understand correctly, in some people's writings, BUT THE EVIL OF AMERICAN SLAVERY IS THAT PEOPLE WERE FORCED AGAINST THEIR WILLS TO BE THE SERVANTS OF OTHERS.
No, I would not force someone against his or her will to be my servant but if someone WILLINGLY wanted to be my servant in return for whatever, yes I would have that type of "slave."
Peace.
