WILLIAM ARNOT
(1808-1875)
Laws from Heaven
"The Americans are so situated with respect to their slaves. They cannot push the Africans aside from the best condition of humanity on the one hand, without pushing themselves as far from the best condition of humanity on the other."
William Arnot, of the #churchofScotland, comments on revealed laws from heaven. He says enslavers cannot push African people away from humanity without also losing their own humanity.
Some nowadays are upset that the slavery was so bad.
How can you consider the humanity of all?
