Gee, hypocrite hawk, how come we are not still doing this today? Taking slaves
in warfare? I mean the Bible says we can; sez H. Hawk.
So a slave has his personal sovereignty? I would submit that his personal
sovereignty has been stolen. You just continue to show yourself to be an
ignorant hypocrite.
Did Jesus have long hair?
