Rejection of a Claim
On the wikipedia page for Philemon, it states, "In fact Christianity was decisive to the virtual disappearance of slavery during the Middle Ages." This is an unsubstantiated claim which I refute. Many factors led to the decline of slavery after the tenth century, including economic and military factors; slave rebellions; low supply of slaves; and the rise of serfdom, which was a form of forced labor.
