To answer her question simply enough, yes!
We are a slave race.
That's why religion was invented. So we could hope to be saved in this life so to live in the opulence our masters enjoy now once we're dead. Till then we slave away,go deep into debt to afford stuff we don't really need because we think that will make us happier. And sometimes we pray to ask to be saved from the box we were born into as slaves. This makes for a second slavery of sorts.
Hope we get the faith right while on the flesh so we don't burn for eternity in the spirit.
Romans 13:2
Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment.
1 Peter 2
Submit yourselves for the Lord’s sake to every human authority: whether to the emperor, as the supreme authority, 14 or to governors, who are sent by him to punish those who do wrong and to commend those who do right. 15 For it is God’s will that by doing good you should silence the ignorant talk of foolish people. 16 Live as free people, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as God’s slaves. 17 Show proper respect to everyone, love the family of believers, fear God, honor the emperor.
