Slavery and other simple pleasures

More good news from Talibama North Carolinastan:

Students at one of the area's largest Christian schools are reading a controversial booklet that critics say whitewashes Southern slavery with its view that slaves lived "a life of plenty, of simple pleasures." Leaders at Cary Christian School say they are not condoning slavery by using "Southern Slavery, As It Was," a booklet that attempts to provide a biblical justification for slavery and asserts that slaves weren't treated as badly as people think.

Reader ttrentham says, "The Cary Christian School home page now redirects you to the News and Events section (Link) which includes a press release stating that, because of the article in the Observer, they've dropped the book from their curriculum."

Well, praise the Lord.
