I am the King of Monsters.
I dunno, that link spammer is a pretty awesome guy. I bet he walks around with a cape and a top hat.

First things first, just because the Bible discusses slavery, doesn't mean it supports it. The Bible also discusses murder, but that doesn't mean that it supports it.
Second, And you still didn't address the passage saying that it's okay to beat a slave as long as he doesn't die within three days of it. Also, only Hebrew slaves were freed every seven years, the rest remained slaves, presumably for life (which is racism).
The Bible is saying what to do if you own a slave. It is not supporting it. The Bible says what to do if you are a murderer, does that mean that it supports it? NO!
It's wrong for the bible to consider one human the property of another, so that's the first flaw with what you're saying. The second is that there IS NO HEALTHY BALANCE between a slave and his master, because slavery is a despicable institution in and of itself.
This next quote comes from

.
Slavery in colonial America and Britain in the 18th century was fraught with racism and abuse, but in Old Testament Israel, entrance into slavery simply became a necessity for some. No one forced anyone else into slavery. The slave signed a contract agreeing to serve the master’s family for a period of 7 years. At the end of this time, the Law required the cancellation of the contract. During the indenture period, the slave was entitled to all the rights of any other family member, except the right of inheritance. The closest modern analogy would be that of an au pair. A slave would certainly perform much more strenuous tasks than the light housework required of an au pair, nevertheless similar interpersonal relationships would develop.

Yeah. That guy is so cool. He's not doing it just because he can annonymously do it. If he were standing in front of me, he would still do it. It would look something like this:
Him: Hi there! You should try out <product>!
Me: No thanks.
<pause>
Him: Really! Try this <product>!
Me: Sorry, but I'm not really interested.
Him: <lol> Try this product!
Me: Dude, I don't want to. Go away.
Him: Try this <product>!
Me: NO!
Him: Try this <product>!
Me: If you say that again, I will punch you directly in the face.
Him: Try th - <crunch>
I guess this is why people spam on the interent and phone. They aren't man enough to do it IRL.
I dare all the spammers out there. Come to my face and try that crap out. I will rock your world.

So I downloaded Portal last night, and quickly beat it. I dont know if it took me longer than 2 hours, Godzilla, but it was fun. It'll be a nice brain exercise for my daughter. I recommend it to people who like an IQ challenge.

1. The bible says the slave should fear his master. The bible says this is because the slave is the property of his master. It's saying it's okay to beat them, because they aren't humans, they're property.
2. You still didn't explain what a "healthy balance" is between a slave and his master. This is because there is no healthy balance, and you know it.
3. Once again, only Hebrew slaves were released after seven years.

Yes, he did. You just don't like his response because it disagrees with your beliefs. But by all means, please explain to Laihendi what a healthy balance is between a slave and his master.
