John Dixon: 本期节目探讨了格列高利·纳西安松在公元4世纪提出的反对奴隶制的论点，这比现代废奴主义者早了1500年。他认为人类生而平等，具有神圣的尊严，不应被奴役。他的观点对后世的废奴运动和人权运动产生了深远的影响，但遗憾的是，他的论点在当时并没有得到广泛传播。John Dixon还呼吁人们关注当今世界仍然存在的奴隶制问题。 格列高利·纳西安松: 格列高利·纳西安松的观点核心是，奴役人类是对神圣造物主的亵渎，因为人类生来自由，拥有自由意志，是神按照自己的形象创造的。将人类视为商品，买卖人类，是对神圣秩序的破坏，是对人类尊严的践踏。他认为，奴隶制不仅是对奴隶的压迫，也是对整个人类的伤害，因为它破坏了人类社会的和谐与公平。他用充满力量的语言谴责了奴隶制，并呼吁人们认识到人类的平等与尊严。

His arguments regarding the value of human beings would fuel abolitionists and civil rights movements fifteen hundred years after he was dead. 

If only we'd listened sooner.
