I have a friend who is black and her tastes veer towards ballet and opera, K.D. Laing and Sting. She likes intelligent, kind people--whether they are black or white, and doesn't care for hostile, belligerent people whether they are black or white. She wonders how anyone who calls him/herself a Christian can allow race to enter the equation. Her (biological) brothers think she is cool, but her (biological) sisters torment her because of her tastes and views, and call her stupid, ugly, and every other demeaning name in the book. What's wrong with them? Could it be partly the "Cinderella" scenario, since she is very pretty, and her sisters aren't, and they're just jealous?

How many questions have you answered like this one?
Why can't we just get along doesn't really say it anymore for me.
What ever happened to the word nice?
I am one of the few, rare people who believe in manners.
Just to give you an idea, when I hold a door open for a girl in my school who I don't know. They just kinda stop for 5 seconds wondering what I'm doing till they finally get the fact that I'm holding it open for them.
Why do we hate each other just because of how we look, or what we believe in?
I'm gonna put some easy ones out there. How many times have you seen a kid of a high social class tease, mock, even assault a kid of a lower social class? How bout racial discrimination? Goin both ways for that last one.
Now for someones people just don't think about. Christan's and atheists. You're both fighting and yelling at each other, you both forget that Christians are suppose to love there enemy's and that atheists are suppose to be open minded. Emos vs preps. Gang violence. etc.

You know, the guys that are always talking about "putting women on a pedestal" and "worshipping women" and so on.

Do those guys annoy you? Do you wonder if they were castrated at birth?

Sometimes it gets to be confusing because there are Jewish from all nationalities. I know some people who claim to be half Jewish because their mother/father is Jewish. Even one girl I know is half Jewish, it's weird because her father is an African-American and she refers to herself as half-Jewish rather than half-black.

Very confusing; are the Jews a race or a religion?
