IFirst of all, lol Wikipedia. The Catholic Church has always been against slavery; when the slave trade started picking up in the 15th century, the popes made enslaving someone an excommunicable offense.
Don't laugh at the use of Wikipedia, then reference a site that, due to its vested interest, might have a revisionist attitude when it comes to its organization's history. It would be like relying on the Korean Central News Agency for reliable information on North Korea.
