  • "You don't hear about enslaved people at Mass or in Sunday school," says author Rachel Swarns. Her new book tells the story of 272 enslaved people sold in 1838 to help save what is now Georgetown University.

    Catholic church is about profit, there are no boundaries or limits, from it's beginning to present time, the Vatican will support and invest in any endeavor for profit. One step that is absolutely necessary for global unity and human equality is the recognition of the uselessness that is the Catholic church and the rediculous idolization of the Pope.

      The Scriptures say don’t call any man on earth as “ father “, because we have one Father in heaven ! ( Matthew 23:9 ). Yet young priests are called, “ Father “ ! I cannot call anyone YOUNGER than me, as “ father “ , never, ever ! 😱 * Oh, the Pope is called, “ Holy Father “, which is ridiculous 😡. ( Jesus said, “ Holy *Father, protect them by Your name. . . “. ( John 17:11 ). Jesus also said, “ I came from the *Father and have come into the world, Again, I am leaving the world and going to the * Father. ( John 16:28 ). Many cultures have endearing terms, like “ dad[dy], poppa, pops, poppie, etc. “. Even Jesus called the * Heavenly Father, an endearing term, as * ABBA Father ! ( Mark 14:36 )

    Really, slavery was the norm worldwide since at least the invention of agriculture. What institutions on earth did not profit from it?

      My take on the catholic church and slavery is the HYPOCRISY!
      Even today 2023 they are still turning their heads on children being molested by some priests. The Vatican is big business 💰💰💰💰
      so don't rock the boat

      @@cotus2408 Africans were the only group to endure brutal shattal slavery and they children were also born into slavery as well. The slavery of the Israelites were never as brutal and they were able to be free after a certain amount of years African slaves were not!!

      Every institution does and still does. That's why their descendents should receive reparations. You proved my point!

      America's form of chattel slavery was UNIQUE. You need to read some more history books.
