They say that you are a slave to the master because you act with him "living rent free in your mind," even if you overcome him, you still acted only out of your hatred of him. All this would take is for a Christian to overcome the tyrant because he wishes to spread salvation to as many as possible and remind them of their divine destination, and not because he resents his captor (which is bound to happen in certain circumstances, anyways, because people are imperfect).

Of course, you would still be a "slave" to God, but a Christian views existence as a striving or return to God, so it would not really be an enslavement but a fulfillment of your existence and thus freedom. That Christians succor the "unworthy" is not a sign of them being "slave moralists." Keep in mind that:

>When you, the slave, give your money to someone in need, you do it because of guilt, because of societal pressure, because of pity, because you don't want to go to hell--all reasons of bad conscience, of fear, of hatred.

>When the master gives money to someone in need, it is because it is in their nature as a compassionate, charitable, powerful person. In both cases the action is the same, but your reasons are that of a slavish, weak, cowardly nature, and the masters are pure.

We are called to be compassionate and powerful (holier, more patient, less resentful; a resentful man returns hatred with hatred). To do good out of guilt/pity(condescension)/fear is imperfect and doesn't reflect upon you. It's a dead, fruitless action.

Of course, it's the same criticism as paganism's criticism of Christianity. Any good aspect in Christianity is a holdover of "pagan culture." Any bad aspect is [Abrahamic boogeyman]. Any good aspect is a paradoxical master morality that wormed its way in. Any bad aspect surely, obviously represents the totality of Christianity- that is, slave morality. Of course, Christianity makes no monomaniacal distinction between slave and master morality, but rather incorporates elements of both without going to excess so as to save the soul.

This is the extent of Christianity's egalitarianism- all souls are worthy of being saved. This does not mean we must dissolve hierarchies. It simply means we must strive to save all, as all are "made in the image and likeness of God." In other words, it proposes an Ubermensch that no one needs to slave to bring about without experiencing; each sacrifices himself for his salvation and the salvation of others, rather than all sacrificing themselves for the creation of one.
