Irrefutable evidence would seem to consist of asking God whether or not God had approved slavery or if humans had. To the extent that God's existence is not yet accepted, then surrounding context seems appropriately referenced for reasoned estimation. To me, that context seems to suggest that approval of slavery seems inconsistent with of (a) apparent lack of mention of slavery in Genesis 1-2 (God's apparently initial human experience context), (b) God's apparent guidance away from adverse social interaction in Genesis 4, and (c) God having just liberated the Hebrews from slavery. However, human disposition seems more likely than God's to have become acclimated to slavery and more likely to accept it if not on the receiving end of it.

I heard that food 2.5x world population needs currently exists. If so, to me, that seems reasonably interpreted as suggesting that God provided food for all. If humans misuse their apparently God-given privilege of the most advanced level of self-determination on Earth to replace God (as the human experience's primary administrator) with humans and establish an economic system that results in resource imbalances, who should logically be the focus of complaints, God or those who replaced reliance upon God with reliance upon humans for primary administration of the human experience?
