I think that it all depends on how you look at Holy Bible.

Example:

Slavery is morally reprehensible in all situations.
The Bible allows slavery, and as Exodus 21:20–21 says, “Anyone who beats their male or female slave with a rod must be punished if the slave dies as a direct result, but they are not to be punished if the slave recovers after a day or two, since the slave is their property.”
Therefore the Bible is an unreliable moral guide.

OR........

The Bible is a reliable moral guide.
The Bible allows slavery, and as Exodus 21:20–21 says, “Anyone who beats their male or female slave with a rod must be punished if the slave dies as a direct result, but they are not to be punished if the slave recovers after a day or two, since the slave is their property.”
Therefore slavery cannot be morally reprehensible in all situations, and it is God's will that you may beat your slaves as long as they can get back to work in a day or two.

Any thoughts?
