Hallo everyone!

Which word do you think implies more hatred :Cracker or Ni**er??

And do you think that these words are equal in the amount of hatred they imply??

In other words, which one is worse and why??

Thanks for your input and please know that I don't encourage the use of any racial words!!

get my youngest brother to be less homophobic?

When I was 16, William was 14, and Jesse was 4 are parents got separated, William and I went with our father, and Jesse went with our mother, and was around her extremely homophobic family very often.

Our mother recently died and her family wanted nothing to do with Jesse, so I got stuck with him. He is only 16 now, but he is the most homophobic person I have ever seen. I am afraid of inviting some of my friends over because they are gay, and I do not want him to treat them bad.

Especially since he told me he hates gays more than he has ever hated himself, which is hard to imagine. From what I heard he used to self-harm (he stopped almost a year ago), and had tried to kill himself three times in past (last time was almost two years ago), so I can only imagine how much he hates gays...

I asked a question about black culture, honestly only wanting to understand better, and the response looked something like this:

"OMG you are such an ignorant arrogant racist hayseed a$$hole!"

Since I'm obviously too ignorant to even form a question about parts of black culture, let's work on that! :) Hopefully these questions are so basic that none of my stink... I mean ignorance will matter.

What are the top stereotypes that white people have of blacks?

What do white people need to know most about blacks in general?

What are the biggest problems that blacks face as a culture?

Do you think that white people, in general, hate black people?

If I had to deal with just 2 days of torment to get an eternity of heaven I would be a happy man.

Americans POWs in North Vietnam, as an example, went through far more torture and pain than Christ ever did. That's to say nothing of the Jewish people during the holocaust.

Jews and Arabs are true sons of Abraham. Christians are not related to Abraham in genetics. So why they said they are related to Abraham?

Throughout history scientists have been condemned and threatened by the church (think gallileo, darwin), is christianity the only religion to do this, or are there others?

Input from people of different religions is appreciated.

If you are religous think about it for a second. Place yourself in his shoes...he lived in a home with no floor, no a/c, no television. He was hated by many he rarely got a meal that didn't have sand in it. Think about it sit by God creator of Heaven and Earth and basically live like a prince or stay and live the mediocre life he had.... i would nail myself to that cross.

I've wondered this at times. When Jesus came to earth, He fulfilled many of the prophecies concerning Him. He was either a liar, a lunatic, or Lord of all creation as He claimed to be. With His fulfillment of prophecies written up to thousands of years before He arrived on earth, with the miracles and healings He did, and with the evidence of extranormal powers and character in the followers He left behind on earth, why is it hard for most Jews to believe that the Man who came down to earth 2,000 years ago is indeed their Christ?

Some people just don't know the difference between racism and being prejudice. For example, Black folks can't be racism because they don't have that much power in this country to make a impact also they don't have much ownership like white people. On the other hand white are racist they own countries. lands, business, and other ventures around the world. The reason I say white people are racist because they oppressed other races and cultures for centuries. Black people are just prejudice as well as other people of color. So Iam saying that there a difference between racism and just being prejudice. Finally Racism is to hold a class of people back and keep them disfranchise to uplifted themselves. I'm not trying offened anyone I'm telling the truth! Do you agree or not?
