These idiot, airhead vids that serve as insight on the life of a black (which is ridiculous & entirely fictional). ----That they all are only good for wearing grillz & degrading women,etc...

Answer 3

No, but I guess if a person feels that way then that's how he or she wil perceive the Black race, and thanks for the history. I've added this page to my favorites to show others who may not know this. Black people aren't the only race of people who have been blackballed or treated with cruelty by an exogamy group.
For example, Jews were subject to mistreatment and deaths by the German goernment during WWII. The Holocaust is the name applied to the state-led systematic persecution and genocide of the many minority groups of Europe and North Africa during World War II by Nazi Germany and its collaborators.

A Euthanasia Program, leading to the later use of killing squads and extermination camps in a massive and centrally organized effort to exterminate every possible member of the populations was targeted by Adolf Hitler and the Nazis.

The Jews of Europe were the main victims of the Holocaust in what the Nazis called the "Final Solution of the Jewish Question"
but other minority groups also suffered and were killed. The commonly used figure for the number of Jewish victims is six million, though estimates by historians using, among other sources, records from the Nazi regime itself, range from five million to seven million.

The truth of the matter though is that man has been causing injury to man every since Adam and Eve sinned in the "Garden of Eden." For example, Adam and Eve chose to live apart from God. When the "devil" through the "serpet" tempted "Eve" to eat from the "tree" of knowing "good and bad," he was really chanlleging "God's right to rule over them," and he also was implying that God was unfair in not letting Adam and Eve choose for themselves what was right and what was wrong. She ate and gave to her husband. The result was that they die spiritually and lost their righteous standing with Jehovah. This also caused sin and death to come on them, their offsprings (us) and into the world, and they also lost out as being perfect humans. Their once perfect hearts were now imperfect and became ones having evil inclinations.

Also, once they chose to live apart from Jehovah, they were really saying that they could govern themselves better than God could which was a lie. They believed "satan's" lie that God could not rule them in ways that would be beneficial for them. If you read Jeramiah, chapter ten and verse twenty-three in the Bible, you'll see what Jehovah had to say through the prophet Jeramiah on this matter: " I well know, O Jehovah, that to earthling man his way does not belong. It does not belong to man who is walking even to direct his step, " so as you can see man's directing his step, it doesn't belong to him. Also, in the book of Ecclesiastes 8:9, Gods say that "man has dominated man to his injury," so not only does it not belong to man to direct his step, from this verse you can see that man's way of ruling is to have
dominance over other men and to cause injury to them.

For example, the rich and the poor, on any given day we can read on the internet or read in the news of people starving to death, children dying because of malnutrition, aids, killings, hatered, earthquakes, and etc. Do you think that if man could rule effectivly that these things would be part of our world? I don't belive that they would!

Hence, slavery of Blacks in this country and the Holocaust are good examples of how man has dominated man to his injury amd that directing his step does not belong to him. His (man) way and "satan's" way has been a total failure.

Finally, I feel sorry for those people who have done such things ( the Holocaust, slavery, or any heneous act perpetrated on human society) and especially if they never repented of these acts because "in the end they loose" if Jehovah (God) Psalms
83:18, deems them unworthy of everlasting life.

As far as some people believing that Blacks are naturally lazy, after Adam and Eve sinned, Adam's punishment was to "work the ground by the sweat of his brow" meaning that before his sin work would have been easy to perform, but after his sin work become hard, so I think that some human beings might have an inclination toward laziness because he or she knows, and depending on the work, that it's going to be hard work so these people might choose not to work (I'm not saying that it is right). Also, because we are no longer perfect human beings. we sometimes make erroneous decisions. I love all people, and I try my best not to stereotype any group. We're all one blood.




I believe that we all are a little mess up in some and a lot ways because we're no longer perfect human beings, but it shouldn't mean that we should be stereotyped as "good-for-nothings," for those who make it into the new "paradise earth," all of the imperfection will be done away from off of them by the "shed blood of Jesus" (God's Son). They (we) will no longer be subject to man's laws or man having domination over other men ( and women and children) or causing injury to them. We'll be governed by God's heavenly kingdom which is his heavenly government which is from heaven. This heavenly government will be ruled by Jesus ( God's Son) and a "special class" of some of his faithful followers or his co-rulers. workers (144,000). We will be living in a world where they will rule us with perfect justice. No longer will there be imperfect conditions or man having domination
over man to his injury. All laws will come from people who will have perfect hearts and minds, hence, injustices will not abound to any. It will be one big peaceful and righteous world.
