"Slavery ended in medieval Europe only because the church extended its sacraments to all slaves and then managed to impose a ban on the enslavement of Christians (and of Jews). Within the context of medieval Europe, that prohibition was effectively a rule of universal abolition. "—

I love Celtic Woman. Her voice is really beautiful and the video is wonderful. The words are also comforting.
I was looking for the "classic" song, "Be Not Afraid" to go with this quote and found this one instead. I like it a lot.
Hi Dymphna, I found your link at RAnn's Sunday Snippets and came over to say hi. I love Celtic Women too! But, I've wondered, are they Christian artists or New Age?
Thanks for stopping by, Noreen.
I don't think of Celtic Woman as being particularly Christian or even New Age per se. I just think of them as musicians.
