Proof requires valid interpretation. To state the Bible condones slavery as we understand it today and then to make a moral judgement on the Bible's teachings requires justification. If you are not interested in discussing the topic objectively then this just reveals your prejudice. The criteria for slavery in the Bible is very clear and ethical within its context and cannot be used to condone slavery in its early modern and modern forms.
Exactly, I am prejudiced against people who can state slavery is morally righ if it follows the rules established by a bunch of "I hear voices inside my head" bronze age guys.
