There were many arguments that were used to justify slavery.

One, that slavery was a natural state of mankind and has existed throughout histroy. They even noted that slaves were mentioned in The Bible, but Jesus never spoke out against slavery.

Another argument was that slaves were property and the US Constitution protected the slave-owner's property rights. Also, that slaves were content with slavery because they were fed, clothed, and taught Christian values.

Another argument was that there would be an economic impact to the South and to the cotton trade if slavery was ended. If all the slaves were freed, there would be widespread unemployment and chaos.

One argument used to justify slavery was the belief that it was a natural order where certain races were superior to others and destined to be in positions of power and control over those deemed inferior. This belief was often based on pseudoscientific theories of racial hierarchy and the idea that slavery was necessary for the economic prosperity of certain societies.
