Due to their religious beliefs, namely, that all men are made in the image of God and that everyone in the world are brothers and sisters through Christ Jesus, Mennonites believe that it is morally wrong to enslave any person (since all are part of the family of God). For those same reasons, Mennonites believe in equality and nonviolence.
