My point is I feel That practicing unconditional love will help me stop being a hater. Its not easy, I will always come across some one or something that ticks me off or hurts my feelings.I know I will get over the pain. People are human and thats why God created forgiveness.

Are you saying that I am hating some people because of their origins? Bah.

I have to say that I am since long done with people who accuse others of not being "loving" enough just because one does not think/act as they do. That's their problem and issue (and big ones to that) and I would stay away from such souls.

The same reason as if white people should leave an african black country if they don't like black people. Of course. Needless to say. Goes without saying.

Truth be told it sounds racist when you say if black people dont like white people they should get out of the Us. Why not stay in the community and learn how to get along with each other? I know its harder for one than the other to do. I know its hard for me. Its hard for me not to judge people. I used to joke around and say " Im not prejudice I hate every body" But its not funny, not at all.
I was born in Detroit and I seen what happens when one race doesnt like the other so they moved out. They called it the White Flight. Now we have a city that has layers of corruption. I still see the former mayer every now and then on the national news for new charges they brought up against him. And if thats not bad enough, a few weeks ago I was watching Jeperdy and there was a question about him regarding his criminal acts. Is it the blacks fault that there is so much crap going on in Detroit? Maybe? But I look at it this way , the whites should have stayed because IF YOUR NOT A PART OF THE SOLUTION THEN YOUR PART OF THE PROBLEM!

I've seen racism in the States, but I've also seen it in Mexico between mexicans...I'm not sure if I've ever been the victim of racism or people were just rude to me because they were in a bad mood haha. I've seen latinos being racist towards white people, and latinos being racist towards black people (and this happens more often tbh). I've seen some white people being racist towards some stereotyped latinos .

In my conclusion, everyone can be racist, and sadly ''minorities'' are often the most racist people. I just think racism is stupid and extremely ignorant....EXTREMELY ignorant, did I make enough emphasis there? I just don't see the logic in generalizing an idea when someone with a specific physical trait does something wrong and then apply it to the whole group of people with the same physical traits. Well...I could see the logic if we then conclude that humans are stupid because some do stupid things, which is true, and that's why we need God . <----see, racism leads to the gospel :D haha.

I don't think that racism is right especially coming from christian people.I would like to think that these are the people who help people when things like this occur but lately I've noticed that its quite popular .Its sad.Any comments on this?or suggestions as to how i cab deal with this if it happens to me.


I don't believe a real Believer can be racism, not according to John at least. For racism is a from of hatred.
If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?
I John 4:20

I must agree..i feel that the ones who cry 'racism' the loudest are usually as guilty if not guiltier than the ones they accuse of being racist. If you are looking for racism, have your discrimination radar out in the open, bleeping..searching and looking for any signs of mistreatment of racism..what does that say? It says you may come to a conclusion of something being racially charged when in fact its not..at the very least you will be stereotypical if not racially prejudiced yourself. I am saying this being a latino..my heart breaks because so many of my latino/latina neighbors..why by the way are beautifull people have bought into the discrimination deal hook,line and sinker..surely we will have some who are racists. But i am not on this 'witchhunt' to track down every supposed racist white person or any person for that manner and rebuke or accuse them. If they're truly racist, then i pity them..they're missing out on a quality life by hating others. It's sad for them really.

This so called racism debate is often biased and unfair and very hypocritical. It usually spawns a golden opportunity for self-righteous people to show off how good and "tolerant" they are and how bad others are, who do not think exactly as they do. Like a Soviet style lecture in "right thinking". It is used as a political tool to bash political opponents and to suppress inconvenient criticism of failed policies. Just yell "raaaacism" and all objectivity is gonzo with the wind. So little decency, honesty and integrity is found in these debates and so much talking of empty words of utopia that people don't even believe in themselves. This is my main observation of the so called racism debate of the west.

some zombie threads need to be dug up. Some topics need to be revisited.

Can't say this is one of them...
