Well if you think it was good AND bad, start off with what you think was bad about it.
Let's discuss.
like you give a . You just think you see an easy clean.
Ephesians 6:5-8 Paul states, “Slaves, be obedient to your human masters with fear and trembling, in sincerity of heart, as to Christ” which is Paul instructing slaves to obey their master. Similar statements regarding obedient slaves can be found in Colossians 3:22-24, 1 Timothy 6:1-2, and us 2:9-10.
Quran 39:95 refers to master and slave with the same word. However, slaves are not accorded the same legal standing as the free. Slaves are considered as minors for whom the owner is responsible. The punishment for crimes committed by slaves is half the punishment as to be meted out on free persons.
Nothing yet that says it's evil.
Hinduism is the one and only religion in this world which has a do ented concept of "Occhut" (Untouchables). It is the only religion in this world which spread racism directly by scripture, and by preachers. Those 'untouchable Dalits' who has been considered as 'slaves' by Aryans, are, no doubt, the most pitiable victims of Hindu religion.
In ancient Rig-Veda, we find clear mention of slaves. From Aryan scripture, we get three types of slaves [Ref. Pracheen Bharotey Dash-protha : Devraj Channa] -
1. Slaves because of incurring debts
2. Slaves because of loosing in gamble
3. Slaves because of loosing in war.
Since then the slaves are denoted as captivated purchasable product. It has been legalized to have intercourse with the women of defeated side after the war as the women were considered as the "spoil of war". There are numerous examples in ancient Hindu scriptures where royal sages made relationship with slave-girls. One example may be the birth of Kaksmibaan as depicted in Rig-Veda (1|116) who was born because of the relationship between Dirghotomaa and a slave-girl of Angamhishi. Kobosh-Oilush was also a child of a slave girl.
thomas jefferson said it was evil
The Eightfold Path says one is to avoid slave trading, pros ution, buying and selling children or adults,. (Article 5). Article 4 implies much the same. Bhikkhu Bodhi: "Buddha mentions five specific kinds of livelihood which bring harm to others and are therefore to be avoided: dealing in weapons, in living beings (including raising animals for slaughter as well as slave trade and pros ution), in meat production and butchery, in poisons, and in intoxicants." (AN 5.177). (Source: Access to Insight: "The Noble Eightfold Path: The Way to the End of Suffering," by Bhikkhu Bodhi [1999])
There are other old mentions to take into account too.
So maybe Buddhism but does Buddhism consider good vs evil?
Most Buddhists believe that the negative actions and beliefs of human beings such as greed, anger and ignorance give rise to evil. ... Buddhists do not believe that human beings are evil, but they generally accept that humans create suffering through their greed, anger and ignorance.
So still they don't say slavery is evil. They just advise to avoid it.
