I am curious why this is so. Give references if able. Maybe it's just some of the people I encounter, but I have noticed a lot of Catholics and basic Christians are racist towards African Americans and the Jewish culture, in general. I do not blame the religion, I just ask how/why people would have this conception of hatred.

1.There is no adequate explanation for the origin of life from dead chemicals. Even the simplest life form is tremendously complex.
2.The fossil record, our only documentation of whether evolution actually occurred in the past, lacks any transitional forms, and all types appear fully-formed when first present. The evidence that (ape-men) existed is dubious at best. So called pre-man fossils turn out to be those of apes, extinct apes, fully man, or historical frauds.

So tell me this evolution believers...do you not also have faith in evolution when there is no adequate explanation for the two weaknesses I mentioned above. And are you not solely having faith in what knowledgeable scientists have told you and what they believe is common sense and fact. This is also what believers do, we have faith in a Book that was written by man and you have faith in what scientists have told you even with evidence lacking. So can we all agree that we both are blinded by faith?

Of course, a Christian God is ridiculous in that a compassionate omnipotent creator of suffering is impossible.

And similarly, a spaghetti god is ridiculous in that pasta is a food created by Italian primates, found at one specific place in the universe at one specific time in the universe. Why would something invented by primates, be the main material that makes up the Creator of the entire Universe? It's ridiculous.

But there are possible creators that are not so ridiculous. What proof is there against just a creator who is compassionate and not omnipotent? Or a creator who is not compassionate? Or a creator who is compassionate and omnipotent but not omniscient? Why are the chances one in a trillion for these Gods?

1. There are more Black men in prison than in college.

False. The numbers that people quote are ALL of the Black men in prison, versus ONLY the free young Black men of college age, which spans the late teens to the early twenties.

The misleading “evidence‿ comes from studies such as the one conducted in 2000 by the Justice Policy Institute (JPI), a Washington-based research group. JPI found that there were 791,600 Black men in jail or prison and “only‿ 603,032 of them in colleges or universities. They presented the findings as “evidence‿ of more Black men in prison than in college.


2. Black people, particularly Black men are lazy.

False. How can a people who built this nation and did it for free suddenly become the laziest people in the nation?
According to the US Census Bureau, 68.1% of all Black men and 62.3% of Black women over the age of 16 are in the civilian labor force, compared to 73% of white men. And 59.9% of white women. With racial discrimination and other ch

…and politely discuss things they find confusing about each others perspectives? You know, like they do here? Was there a place where atheists could go where they knew they were likely to encounter Christians and was there a place where Christians could ask questions of the atheists designed to test their rejection of god?
