That the Moors and Jews cannot have Christian slaves.

Slavery is a condition of things established anciently by nations, by which men who were naturally free, are made slaves, and put under the dominion of others, contrary to natural reason. And the term slave (siervo) comes from the Latin word, sercare, which in common speech means to keep or preserve guardar. And such keeping or preserving was established by the emperors: for anciently all who were taken captives, were put to death. But the emperors found it best, that they should not be put to death (aka 'a benefit') but preserved, and made use of. And there were three sorts of slaves - The first, those who are made captives in war, and who are enemies of the faith. The second, those who are born of mothers in slavery. The third, those wha are free, and who suffer themselves to be sold. With respect to this last sort five things are necessary. The first, that the party freely consent, that he should be sold. The second, that he receive a part of the price. The third, that he should know he was free. The fourth, that the buyer should believe him to be a slave. The fifth, that he who causes himself to be sold, should be above twenty years of age.

Taking the opening sentence of this post in context the rule is that Moors and Jews cannot enslave a Christian by any method. If in war (it appears) that a fight to the death is the only possible outcome for a Christian and he himself is prohibited by the 13th amendment from conferring the benefit of slavery to anyone at all.

Now is it any wonder at all that the world is such a messed up place?
