People in America who preach racism, segregation and racial or other forms of genetic purity are often Christian. Jesus had 2 ancestors that weren't Jewish or Israelite. They, in fact, came from the surrounding nations. Ruth was from Moab and Rahab was from Jericho.

Not only that, but he was a Jew, and middle eastern. A white man would stick out in the time and place he was supposed to have been born and raised in and was supposed to have lived in.

I would have to disagree with you on that. There are many people in America who are not white who preach racism. I think its kinda funny that you would generalize though, seeing how that is part of racism.

I wasn't saying all racists are white, I only brought up the subject of Jesus's race because he is traditionally depicted as white due to the classic art of him being done by Europeans.

I didn't say that you said all racists are white, you said that most racists are white, which is a generalization, which is part of racism.

*looks back* Ohhhh man!! I'm sorry!! You are absolutely right!! Maybe I shouldn't be reading so early in the morning. sweatdrop My apologies.

I suppose my argument is still the same though. I'm fairly certain that there are other religions out there that can preach racial authority, but I have no proof of what I am thinking.

I suppose any religion, unless it's the most peaceful religion on Earth with no violence or hate in it's history whatsoever, could be used to preach hate.
