As much as I would love to see the specture of racism become a distant memory, I don’t beleive it will until the world ends and God calls us home. As far as getting along, for the most part people are already doing that, its just that certain sub sets of people are bringing back up issues that are long dead and buried.

And civilized people in the Western world wonder how clan, tribe, or sect animosity in the Middle East continues for centuries. There must be some gene that is passed on that prevents some races of humans to “get over it!”

I don’t beleive it will until the world ends and God calls us home.

I believe that is true. The world we know comes to an end when we die.

Practicing racism is big business for the professional race hustlers, and their clergy. To bad they haven’t taken the time to read the Bible and see that Yeshua’s race was never mentioned and that He came to bring sinners home-not set up a military kingdom.

I agree with most of the posts so far, that if this had been a conservative church mentioning anything about politics, then the aclu, and “americans for the seperation of church and state” would have already been there protesting.

As TWM, I am not accepting any guilt for what happened over 100 years or the death of mlk for that matter. If blacks want to complain-go back to your motherland and seek reparations from then that sold your ancestors into slavery.

At the time, slavery was an acceptable form of commerce and America changed (partly in thanks to the cotton gin and other automatic devices) to keep up with the times. No diffrent than corn, pigs or cows.

The sad thing is that we have slavery going on in the 21st century that is being practiced by blacks on blacks and not a peep from black America denouncing it.

I am tired of being lectured about race, it is beyond time that the black victorcrats stop lecturing and start listening to the views of other ethnic groups. Whites, latinos, asians, and etc have valid points of view that unfortunately the victocrats won’t ever hear because it doesn’t fit with their viewpoint.

If people are wondering why white-heterosexual males are angry just consider that we are tired of being blamed for every sort of injustice in this country. Tired of not being selected for jobs that we are qualified for, tired of struggling to finance our college education while black/latino & women have their own schlarships and none for white males. We are tired of being lectured to in that we are perceived as being nothing more than closet bigots and that we should “Shut-up white boy!” Tired of the racial sterotypes that only white males can be racist and allow other ethnic groups a freepass for their racial bigotry in school, church and work.

So until I refuse to teach a CPR/First Aid class, etc that has blacks in it-then and only then can BHO, and the other race hustlers lecture me and then drag my sorry Jewish-white-heterosexual-cra**er-a** back in for a diversity seminar on racism.

Burns, pastor at Rising Sun First Baptist Church in Woodlawn…

Back to basics…I thought the Democrat Party adherents believed in the “Separation of Church, and State?” Why do they accept a minister as an elected governmental official. They (the ministers) are totally incapable of separating themselves from either.

That is, unless money is invovled.

I don’t know about you, but I just don’t feel like “examining race relations”.

Nor should you have to. “Race relations” in this country aren’t going to further evolve in any event until blacks take Bill Cosby’s advice and undertake a serious self-examination of why “sub” is no idle prefix before their “culture.”

What’s so tragically ironic about the situation is that if I really was a cracker-style racist, bent on keeping the black man down, I could do no better than to impose from the outside “leaders” like the ones they have chosen for themselves: people who impede the path to true equality through lies, bogus rationalizations and preying upon the negative emotions of those who follow.

An officer of the old Japanese Imperial Army, who was questioned once about the usefulness of exercises that often required the troops to spend several days without rest, replied: “The already know how to sleep. They need training in how to stay awake.”

Similarly, today’s black subculture already knows how to hold a century-plus old, self-defeating grudge: what they need to learn is how to let it go.

Mo’ money.
