Racism is still a problem in our everyday life.

Sonic360 · February 05, 2010, 07:07:17 PM

Hello there guys, I'm here to discuss racism in our everchanging country.

Racism is an emotion caused by hatred, envy, and just downright disgust. I am happy to say that I am not a racist American, but some of us in this nation still feel hatred towards other nationalities. Racism is mainly targeted towards African Americans and Mexicans. Who's to say we're not all equal, skin is nothing but a flesh, a useless coat of skin. The main reason for me making this topic because I have seen people of different races killed because of skin complection, lied to and decieved because of envy. I really want to get rid of racism for good, but some people in this world are just too blind to see that there is absolutely no soul on Earth that isn't exactly the same. I know a few members here that are rasist, but those names will not be mentioned because of confedential reasons. I know how it is between rasism and non-rasists just today one of my friends called this boy, dare I speak it, a Nigger, this really pissed me off because I can't stand people who disrespect other people like that, and in public too. I may get critisized later for this but, most of our world heritage consists of Africans, in the bible I know that they don't give specific races of the people, but hasn't anyone here noticed that the events from the bible takes place in the continent of Africa. Jeruselum, Egypt, Cannan, they are all in Africa believe it or not. Most of you might not agree with my statement, but it is a logical explination of the sequence of events that have gone on in the bible for hundreds years. Well enough about that, I don't want to get too much in-tune with the bible.

Well we all come from the same ancestors leading up to the first 2 beings on earth. I wan't to help to continue to help with destroying rasism, but for those of you who want to help please don't hesitate to help out people who you know are being treated wrongly because of race or skin color. Btw no I am not African I am Caucasian (White)

Yes, but just like hentai it's a problem that will NEVER cease to exist...even though we'd all like it to.

I'm not racist but a good percentange of my famaly is...and I don't like it, but as I stated above, it can never completely dissapear...

No offense to the Christians on the forum, but something about the bible and it's quotes just rub me the wrong way... $:-\$

Edit: Just did the math...exactly 20% of the people in my house are racist...

I know rasism can never truly be destroyed, but seeing how MLK caused a great impact on the world, maybe one day...I will be able to do the same. Btw-no offence taken

edit: sadly my mom is rasist against African Americans, we once had new neghbors who were nigerian and she told them about her views and all that crap and actually ran them out of the neighborhood. Sadly enough she never repents for it.

Wow, I just had a similar discussion in my metal tech class, and yes, it is a problem, I really also hate it when new kids that go to new schools easily get judged... some get "praised" and some get shunned. (I've seen it at my district a million times...) and I've seen freshmen who is a Mexican and is now a, what I call, a lowlife, and he is struggling to get through in school. I hope it will die down soon, I think its a loooonnng fad that's goin through the world...

Yeah if only there were a way to demolish it completely, well it might happen not in our lifetimes but as now it is impossible to accomplish.

Uh, dude? Christians would be the FIRST to think Adam and Eve. God never meant for this to happen. We used to live in a perfect world. But when Adam and Eve disobeyed God, sin entered the world, and we now live in a broken creation.

Wow, I must be glad that I dont know racist people. But I once had a 'friend', who was sort of racist in 6th grade..

Zero Insanity · February 09, 2010, 09:10:54 AM

I live on the very border between racist and non-racist people. And just for the record, I'm not a racist person, but I do joke about it if you know me a lot (Mainly to my friends, they know I'm not racist).

NiGHTS · February 09, 2010, 09:29:25 AM

wellll raaacccissssmmm

Its a very interressting topic i find (maybe thats why Roll of Thunder was the only thiing i enjoyed in English Lit, Fuck classic British literature like Pride and Prejudice)

its easy enough just to say the white community is racist towards the black community blah blah blahim not gonna go to much depth about that
But their are two sides of the coin

I mean you do get those people of the black community that dont make things any better for themselves.

Speaking from a personal experience i was saying to my friend about colours or something (i was like 6/7 so mleh) and this guy starts chewing my head of calling me a racist because I said black wasnt my favourite colour and at the time i prefered blue. He was then chased away by about 10 people and i was stood there laughing.
But yea some dont make things easier by using the racist card for everything, but as well people forget that the black community do insult the white community as well.
I mean I've seen plenty examples of both sides of racism and how they affect everyone. People just need to let go of the stereotypes they were brought up with I mean most racist have been influenced by their parents or even peers at school/work. So this problem wont go away until the majority of people sway from racism to well non-racism

Well,some people are christian but still racist,you'd be surprised how many people have different views on the religion.

EchidnaPower · February 11, 2010, 02:30:23 PM

Let me just say something. If there is a Christian who is still racist, then that so-called Christian needs to get his/her head straight. God created us all in His own image, and each one of us is unique because that's His signature stroke to one of His masterpieces. That includes the ones who are white, black, short, tall, skinny, fat, no matter who we are, God loves us. Even those who don't know about Him, He loves them too, and He wants to have a relationship with that person. No matter what his physical design is. The world has been corrupted by sin, and that's why racism, porn, drinking, smoking, and all other wordly problems are such a big deal. It's up to us as Christians to spread the Word of God and make those problems shrink.
