I have the dubious opportunity to perouse the musings of a website called StuffBlackPeopleDon'tLike on blogger. It was pertaining to a blog entry about water cannons being used against Black people during a riot in Staten Island,NY. I also happen to run across an anonymous comments regarding Jim Crow. This anonymous commenter basically said:
"A society based on Christian values and racial inequality will accept that some blacks are unable to succeed for biological reasons and will respond by tailoring its culture, social institutions, and economy around dealing with that unpleasant fact"
Now why would something like that come up? This is 2011, not 1963. Well, this was a website dedicated to pointing out every bad thing Black people do, so it shouldn't surprise me. Being a Black American who is living in the 2010's era, who was born in the 1980's, I don't think Jim Crow was a good thing. I can go to school anywhere I want. I can eat anywhere I want, and further more, this quote I just described is also a fallacy when you look at it.
Here is why. This quote: "A society based on Christian values and racial inequality will accept that some blacks are unable to succeed for biological reasons and will respond by tailoring its culture, social institutions, and economy around dealing with that unpleasant fact" fails to mention something. When looked upon from a Christian perspective, this is what is taught: We are all equal in God's eyes because we are all create in his image. Here is some scripture to help with that.
Galatians Chapter 3, verse 28: “There is no difference between Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.”
Genesis Chapeter 1, verse 27: "God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them".
Not equal? Well, according to God the Father, we are made in his image, therefore, we are all equal and we are his children. Racism and bigotry are basically forms of vanity and hate, which Jesus teaches against,
