How did Europeans justify the enslavement of black men, women, and children?

History

TiliK225 [7]3 years ago

Answer:

Slavery is not an institution that developed itself. Many people used the Bible as their justification of slavery. In the book of Genesis, chapter 9, Noah's youngest son Ham saw the nakedness of his father and had him covered, by his brothers. Noah then cursed Ham to be a servant to his brothers forever, Genesis 9:25-26 "Cursed be Canaan! The lowest of slaves will he be to his brothers". This is known to be the first act of slavery; which people argue is sanctioned by God. Many interpret Ham's curse as placed upon people of darker skin color, Africans more specifically. The argument is that since Ham's descendants were to be slaves forever and Africans were already slaves and inferior then they should remain in slavery.

krok68 [10]
What you are referring too is the Gettysburg address. But perhaps maybe you haven't heard it all over.

Lincoln explains in his speech that it is the soldiers who have given their lives, and who have fought with such valor in what they believed in, that have hallowed this ground. Soldiers on both sides, as the states which turned against the union, remained as stars on the union flag.

In other words, it is not the piece of paper that hallows the ground. Not the speech or any other source or action. It is the dedication of the men who fought there that hallowed that ground

If you wish to learn more about this, I recommend going to Gettysburg Pennsylvania just as I have. The town features great restaurants and attractions and you can learn so much from the museum and a trip to the battlefield.

How did martin luther's view of the catholic church change in his lifetime?
Cerrena [4.2K]
Luther was devoted to the Catholic Church during his early years, growing up with a Catholic education.  His feelings of guilt over his own sins drove him to enter a monastery, following a path the church provided for devoting oneself to God.

During his years as a monk, he was trained in theology to become a faculty member at the University of Wittenberg.  The more he studied the Bible itself, the more he saw differences between biblical teaching and the policies and practices of the Catholic Church.  He began to protest against some of what he saw wrong in the church -- not wanting to break away from the church, but to correct problems.

The higher officials of the Roman Catholic Church reacted violently against Luther, excommunicating him and wanting to silence him and even put him to death.  This solidified Luther's conviction that the Catholic Church was wrong, and he became more and more antagonistic against the officialdom of the Roman Church.  He went as far as to declare the office of the pope as the Antichrist.
