Some of the earliest efforts to abolish slavery came from Catholicism, especially Catholic Spain and Portugal. Not really sure how the left can take credit for that, but whatever floats your boat
Not going to argue with what you are saying but I want to point out that modern conservative Christianity is a very very different and derived religion than the religion of the Holy Roman Empire and the ancient Catholic Church.
The catholic church’s involvement in the slave trade is much more complicated and morally ambiguous than you’re implying here. Popes have generally been consistent about the enslavement of Christians, but have waffled back and forth about the enslavement and transport of Africans and native Americans.
Never mind all those serfs the church used to have…
