Racism might be a normal part of human nature, and actually amoral.

YES I believe it's is a normal part of secular nature, not spiritual nature however. Again we all have prejudices, but it's important to keep that stuff inside and never allow it to externalize. For instance I see a pretty woman. I internalize that she is pretty, and that is it. OR I see a pretty woman and I think of having sex with her. That is a little different. I have physically manifested my thoughts. That is when it becomes sin. To be tempted with sin, is not sin. Only to materialize that sin in a manifest disobedient act is it a sin.

This is wrong on so many levels. The legacy of slavery” research shows that chattel slavery is directly related to a wide variety of phenomena in the United States: violent crime rates, black election turnout, executions, educational inequality, economic inequality, school segregation. For black Americans to have been disadvantaged by slavery someone else must have benefitted. And in this country, that “someone” is white Americans.

smh you don’t want to have a serious conversation about racism in America. You just want to deny it and say the past is the past and black peoples are the cause of their own problems.

Only a few of us are actually serious about it.
