Actually the word master comes from the latin master wich means relevant because of perfection or done with high skill. Not related with slavery at all.
That's the same word that was used to refer to slave owners. Looking at one point in this word's history while ignore the rest of it is being deliberately ignorant.

We shouldn't look only to it's original meaning. We should look at how it's used, and how it affects people today.
That's actually what's most important.
