@RnDanger @Popehat They're deeply into a world view which insists that "women, cattle, and slaves" are all necessary categories of chattel and that you can tell if a man is beloved by god based on how much of each category he possesses.

"You can't own women" equates to the civil law insisting that god must hate them, and they weren't especially reasonable to start with.

I could wish reporters would insist on politicians publicly answering "do you agree that you can't own women?"
