Whats up with that? Hard telling. I know I used to be. Many reasons. I think the root problem is when you get two racist groups together, and they brawl, it intensifies it. Or you have severe difficulties with another race.
But now after accepting Christ, in the end it really does not matter.To me anyway. Thats all that matters.
Now, I look at it differently. I got a good friend who hates black people but claims to love Christ. So was are in DC, and on East-West highway. For those who know DC, know what its about. Some black youths pull beside us, and he looks with discust, and starts on a racist rant. I tell him, God could have made you to live down here, instead of a person from a good family who had food on thier table every night.
My admin is black, and we are very close. I couldn't travel if it wasn't for her. And she is a Christian, so we have alot in common.
I still have problems with Arabs, and try to pray about it. But you want to be treated like an animal, you jsut go over to the UAE, and work with them. The problem with them is probably cause they are royals.
Like me. I just can't stand Indians, blacks, orientals, whites, hispanics, and Texans. But, for some strange reason I love Lucy Liu, Jessica Alba, a couple of those hot chicks from Black Robe, and Jessica Simpson. Go figure

Well, IFF, there were a few hanging around the trading posts by Tuba City that would have been easy to stand on, given that they were passed out on the ground. But, most others I've been around (Mesqwaki, Chitimacha, Koasati, Choctaw, and Houma), probably not a good idea to try to stand on[>:].

Racism is based on ignorance. People who have little or no experience with other people they perceive as different base their perception on stereotype. Stereotypes are much easier to form when they are based on physical differences, because physical differences can be instantly recognized.
People are racist because they just simply don't know any better. Some are sooner or later educated, and some refuse to be educated.
