Excuse ME?!! You're a stinking racist! And you have been reported! People like you make my stomach turn.

Zero I think you've way over reacted. Read the context of what he was saying. alot of people in europe find europeans attractive, but not so much asians. on the flip side asians find other asians attractive, but probably no so much europeans. What you are used to you find attractive, what you are not used to you find unattractive. Its not rascist, its human nature. we are suspicious of things we find different than us.

With your tongue hanging out all the time, you might scare off a few young ladies.

I think white people are ugly. Attractiveness is most generally a fleshy quasi lusty issue though.


White people are also pretty lame.

Seriously, Jimmy, that comment was NOT helpful. You are entitled to your opinions, but you just ruined your credibility by posting them.

Process_architect: Weather you realize it or not, your post was, at best, incredibly insensitive. An apology is in order. We are all beautiful in the sight of God. And, I personally find Filipinos to be very attractive people.

Zeroturbulence: I would have been offended, too, the comment was very hurtful. :( But he probably wasn't trying to hurt anyone's feelings, it just came out that way. He needs to apologize, though.

Oh, my goodness, I sound more like a mom every day :eek:

I have no problem at all with someone thinking filipinos are ugly.

What I have a problem with is someone who makes racist comments: "go to the Philippines and see all of the unattractive people."

I don't think you meant that for me, but I just want to say that I grew up being bullied, made fun of, beat-up, thrown off the top of my school bleachers, had dirt, food and spitballs thrown in my face, was pushed into thornbushes as I walked to and from school, had stuff stolen from me, and had my schoolwork projects destroyed by racist scum who picked on me because I looked different. I have absolutely no mercy for racists and will expose them at every chance I get.

No it wasn't meant for you at all. I can see why you got offended.
I am also sorry you went through that. To me racist=ignorant FOOL!

Dude, I'm an ugly white guy too.


I don't know why everyone get's so butthurt over physical appearances. Maybe instead of lieing to ourselves, we could just all face reality, and admit that we're all ugly.


I'm curious though. When was the last time you were repulsed by physical appearances of another?

This idea that we have to take Ephesians 4:29 to an all new level by lieing to ourselves and convincing ourselves that we're all Americas Next Top Model is ridiculous.

Maybe we could admit that we've got zits, vericose veins, dents in our foreheads, ten pounds of flab, and that our lusty flesh is attracted to that which appeals to the lust of the eyes.


Nonetheless, let's proceed into fantasy land and seek to avoid the fact that we're all a bunch of ugly broken people.


Also, white people are pretty lame. We've got a pretty good Kill:death ratio with the other skin colors.





Are you going to lie and say you think this guy is a hawtie?

What about this?


Is that hawt?



Do you think this guy is hawt?



EDIT: Stop letting culture tell you how you should feel about your looks.

1 Samuel 16:7 (ESV)
7 But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not look on his appearance or on the height of his stature, because I have rejected him. For the Lord sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart.”



1 Tim 2:9-10
9 likewise also that women should adorn themselves in respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly attire, 10 but with what is proper for women who profess godliness—with good works

1 Peter 3:3–5

3 Do not let your adorning be external—the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry, or the clothing you wear— 4 but let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God’s sight is very precious. 5 For this is how the holy women who hoped in God used to adorn themselves, by submitting to their own husbands,

I also find it interesting that I can say I think white people are ugly, and process_architect can say filipinos are not so attractive, yet process is the racist?

Zero, why are you all over him when it comes to your people, but when I say something about my fellow whiteys you don't say anything? This seems like a double standard.

Because...

1) "white people" pretty much make up half the earth's population and is such an ambiguous phrase because theres like 100 different countries that are naturally caucasian (white). If you had singled out russians for example, that would be closer to the point. and...

2) because white people as a "race" already get all the breaks: Jesus was white, God is portrayed as a bearded white man, the richest two men in the world are white (Gates and Buffet), all of america's forefathers are white, the queen and all the royal family is white, the most successful actors and actresses in the world are white....should I go on?

He specifically trashed filipinos and the Philippines. Its not the same as saying white people are ugly.

I think a lot people confuse racism and colorism ( Filipinos = race; white= color).

For once I would love to be able to mark the Scot-Irish American box on a form instead of white to describe my ethnicity.

I guess not I was "the nerd" in school. I wear glasses and am kind of small. I will never match up with what this world thinks I should be. I am looking forward to the day when this life means nothing.

I dreamt last night of identicle twins or also in shared body so who knew who truly did what?
If "badness" was done maybe the other twin got the blame when it in truth was not her.
One of them was with a group of females doing evl magic in a Bush on her.She was alone and locked up in little space, abandoned by everyone of people, she was raped, possessed by demons, and was lied about to make her look bad so others would hate her.
She knocked on a house after she was locked up by rapist and managed escape to knock on a house and ask for help the man who opened judged her and di not help because he beleived the lies about her so he hated her and judged her for it throwing her back in the hands of rapist and evil.
It was soul beauty, intent, truth within this body that God could see.
God in the end left marks on one of the twins.
The other one prayed and said For God is my witness and the Holy Ghost (cause they were in a bar and many "rough" spirits and energies on her)
and through you God the truth is known and can be revealed.

As I said imagine ones soul in all kinds of bodies, shapes, sizes, species,nationalities, sexes.... its just a diffferent view sometimes.

It is a expression for your soul and being and thats unique.

saw a film once where a woman had someone elses soul in her body and was difference.In the end she got her body back and peace.

I am happy with my body though given me.

"are you blind this moment" she said "I am " he replied "For now you truly see she said with a smile.He looked deep into her soul, felt it all and loved it all and knew she to be truly beautiful.She heard his soul and felt his spirit and knew he to be so beautiful and holy.and they made love and united.

Best wishes for our bodies.

I believe that this comment was intended for me, so let me clarify. I was not trying to keep the racist argument going, but some hurtful things were said, and not apologized for. Forgiveness is much easier to come by when there are apologies, and I didn't any. My "inner mom" felt the need to point that out, and I do not apologize for doing so, nor do I feel convicted over my post.

Mr. Diggs: I did not know that you were insulting your own race. I now feel strangely amused. Still, I stand by my opinion that your comment was not helpful. However, I did not take away any rep points over it, if that helps at all :) Jesus does not think that any of us are lame. As to your insinuation that I find everyone on the planet to be attractive, that is not what I said, and you know it. I said that we are all beautiful in the sight of God, and that I find Filipinos to be attractive people, which is true. As to your pictures, I never said that toenail fungus was "hawt," so don't be ridiculous. The two guys, however, both seemed to be comfortable with themselves and enjoying life, and I find that very attractive. That doesn't mean that I would take them home to meet mama, but I wouldn't rule it out, either, if God said "He's the one". And I mean that, weather you are willing to believe it, or not.

Zeroturbulence: Thank you for your kind words, I appreciate them muchly. :) I hope that you can forgive process architect, if he ever feels the need to apologize.

How many countries on this list are white?



Also, what does it matter how many people there are of a specific race? This just sounds like prejudice to me.

2) because white people as a "race" already get all the breaks:
That's racist! (although I would agree, part of why I said white people are lame)

Jesus was white,
In all likelyhood, Jesus was not the Scandinavian he is so properly portrayed as.

Why does this matter though? Do you love Jesus for Jesus, or love Jesus for his skin color? If you answer the first, why bother remarking on the latter? Is it somehow prejudice of God to have Jesus have been a Jewish Carpenter who in all likelyhood was not a white european?

I know Jesus wasn't white from all likelyhood, and that doesn't stop me. My love for Christ isn't skin deep. I don't think your love for Christ is skin deep either. So let's not make that an issue, shall we?


God is portrayed as a bearded white man,
What does it matter? We all know the paintings aren't accurate, as anyone who sees the father doesn't live!

the richest two men in the world are white (Gates and Buffet),
Why do you hate old rich white men? White people have all the power and money, right? That's racist!

all of america's forefathers are white,
That's because they were WASPs.... What does it matter what Americas notable figures look like, over say, the Phillipines, Japan, Germany, Chad, or any other country? This is to be expected and is on the verge of a non-sequitor. It doesn't add up to what you think it does (atleast seem to think by your post).

If I went with you to the Phillipines to visit, and I got off the airplane and said, "Wait, where's all the white anglo-saxon protestants?" You're response probably would be short of, "Dude, Dustin, are you like... retarded? This isn't Western Europe dummy!"


the queen and all the royal family is white,
That's because they're the royal family of the United Kingdom.

That'd be like me complaining about the royal family of Tonga not being white europeans.


Where's all the white kings!?!?!!?(oh yeah, europe.)

the most successful actors and actresses in the world are white....should I go on?
This is a matter of economics. The only other option to reach such a level is bollywood, and if I recall it produces more film than Hollywood, but I won't press that.

What does it matter who is succesful on worldly terms though? We're Christians, we're in the world, but not of it!

I don't care who is succesful on worldly terms. I know that isn't my goal. I am to die to myself daily.





Now, I propose that this thread be ignored and go to the bottom. The problem of the thread is asking sinful humans what they think of the physical appearances of sinful humans.
