One problem, the slaves would've actually been capable of their own decisions, had they been given the education. Bingo, you're killing yourself again. If they made the careless mistake, they may or may not have care for the child, so where will the child go?
You somehow draw the conclusion that that's the definition of "godless".
1. My guess is that a man in slavery cares more about his best intrest then his master, with or with out education. When you were 5 or 6, who do you think cared more about you getting hurt, your local school board /teacher/ princaple/etc., or you, the person who got hurt.
2. Right, so why should they even get the extreme option of killing the baby. At least if they put the baby in the wrong home, it will probley live.
3. Godless usualy means with out fearing a god. Here is a logical thing.
Fear of god stops a god fearing man from doing evil things. Killing is an evil thing. Therefore, being godless means with out fear of doing something evil, such as a criminal act.
