goofus –
1: I fully expect in the not so distant future that people will look back at us and wonder how we could have enslaved our computers and I-phones, and how we could have eaten meat, etc. Morality evolves.
2: Eved Cannanni is much more similar to Serfdom (and perhaps more rights are given to Jewish owned slaves in many aspects over Serfs) than to antebellum slavery in the USA.
3: As I pointed out earlier, Eved Cannanni was usually a step up for the person themselves (as opposed to a POW (for which forced labor is allowed by convention, why don’t you ask about that!!) or actual slave).
4: In an alternative line of questioning, do you understand why some people are Kohanim and therefore have more “rights” than other people? Or do you disagree with that as well?
