I was gonna say that he was one of the few getting the message of the bible, but you can justify anything using that thing, including slavery, so it all comes down to your values and what parts you decide to focus on. That book's a right mess and I guess that's why it is so popular. You can be sure to find your own messed up opinion somewhere in there. No need to actually read it.

I won't pretend to be Christianity's biggest fan, but I respect a madlad with his heart in the right place.
Agreed. I meant to say that taking the parts he did from the bible, he had to have been a good guy. More props to him for it. That devine right sacred mission shit though...
