God agrees. Exodus 21:16 Whoever kidnaps another man must be put
to death, whether he sells him or the man is found in his possession.
Deuteronomy 23:15–16 Do not return a slave to his master if he has taken refuge with you.
Let him live among you wherever he chooses, in the town of his pleasing. Do not oppress him.
But men had despicable practices, and depending on how aware you are, you may admit they still do.

I disagree with your interpretation.
Slavery was permitted only for specific reasons. One example would be the guy who tried to break in last summer was caught and went to prison. Instead of that, in a biblically just society, if he was unable to restore the damages plus 400% depending upon specifics, then he would be my slave or indentured bondman until paying off his debt. This is the right way because it's God's way. Here's a little bit about slavery and your chosen main text.
Does the Bible condone Slavery?

Can you read? I specified deaths. And look at these verses:
Exodus 21:16 Whoever kidnaps another man must be put to death,
whether he sells him or the man is found in his possession.
Deuteronomy 23:15–16 Do not return a slave to his master if he has taken refuge with you.

God gave them guidelines to reduce abuse, not to instigate it.

Well then you disagree with God..
Since God is perfect and you are not.. His judgement on the matter is superior to your judgement..
Disagreement with God does not some how remove God from existence.. God is still God and He has total control over all creations eternal destiny.. His Word rules, your POV does not and never will..

Back to putting positions and words into my mouth.. Suddenly your progress has reversed and you forget everything i have said and replace everything i said with projections from your wild imaginations??
I think that it was the right thing during the times that God allowed it for the people that God allowed it for and upon the people God allowed to be in bondage.. As a Christian a follower of the New Testament in these times i do not think enslaving other people is perfect.. Jesus tells me to love my neighbor and so i do not seek to enslave them.. Now do you have the comprehension ability to read this paragraph and understand?
