"Many Christians are very racist."
Well, I've generally had the opposite experience.
Also, we might do well to define the word "many" in your statement, so we know what you're actually talking about.
Is "many" some kind of percentage, or is it just a flat rate... like 5, or 11, or 32?
(But I honestly think 32 is a bit high.)
Conclusion:
1. Until we know exactly what you mean by "many", we can't even argue with you, because we don't really know what you're saying. How many is many?
2. Then, until we determine HOW you arrived at your number (did you read it in a book, or did it come to you in a dream etc) then we have no way to know if you've had some brilliant epiphany, or if you're just complaining about life at the end of a bad hair day.
3. The statement "many christians are racist" may APPEAR very confrontational, but it's honeslty so vague it doesn't really mean anything at all.

I believe you harbor some "loathing" of others based on a false presumption that a large amount of Christians are racist. You came out swinging and continued swinging by making broad brush statements. The flow and context of your posts and OP lean that way, and honestly you're being disingenuous about all of it.

The point is it is pervasive and has existed longer than Jews. What I wrote I didn't hear on MSNBC and it's not about politics. It's about the willful, sinful nature of racism and some groups willingness to try and hang a scriptural context on it to disguise the true nature of it. Among all societies that I've come across in 64 years.

And that figure of "1%" is a number you pulled from which learned source?
No source?
You mean you just made it up?
Like just now?
Bob, we enjoy your company just fine.
And if you want to chat about issues, and problems, and things that bug you... that's also fine.
But if you want to make up numbers out of thin air... well... that's a bit less fine.
