should religion teach us to love each other regardless of race?

Question

religion or status,if not why, if yes how

Answer 1

Funny, many religions already claim to, and yet the religious are the ones who start the wars..... In fact, I bet that most murders are theists as well, and most pedophiles and most rapists. Religion does not have a very big impact on people's ability to love one another.

Answer 2

That's what the Bible, and, although I've personally never read them, I suspect, the Torah and the Koran and whatever other Holy Texts there may be, teaches. The problem seems to be that, by the time everything gets processed through "religion" and the through denominations, it's probably only by a stroke of luck that whoever is handy and deemed a sinner isn't taken out back of the church and stoned. Keep the faith.

Answer 3

I think yes. We should love each other without taking on God's role of judging regardless of race or anything else. Too many people worry about what others are doing when they should be worrying about themselves.

Answer 4

The Bible says Phillip went to the chariot of an Ethiopian who was reading the scriptures. The Ethiopian was trying to understand but couldn't. Phillip guided him through the scriptures. I say the Bible already teaches this, maybe not religious sects, but Biblically yes. We need to get past our hatred of each other. Jesus did not say love your neighbor if he is orange, He said love your neighbor as yourself. Do good to others. One of disciples asked Him who was his neighbor, thus the Parable of the good Samaritan. Yes you are to love others regardless of race. You are to love them as a brother or sister in the Lord.

Answer 5

Yes, you would think so. Problem is, religion is largely undefined.

Thanks to 'religious freedom' there are too many so-called 'religions' that either teach a religion-of-convenience, or teach the congregation what they want to hear, rather than the Truth.

Sad but true.

Answer 6

All religions are related
If they do not teach us to love each other they wont be religions>.

Answer 7

that is what jesus taught;(Mark 8:17) . . .Do YOU not yet perceive and get the meaning? Do YOU have YOUR hearts dull of understanding?

(Acts 10:34-35) 34 At this Peter opened his mouth and said: “For a certainty I perceive that God is not partial, 35 but in every nation the man that fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him.. . .

Answer 8

I think people in general should be taught that regardless of religion or anything else. Besides that, if we all took off our skin, we'd all be pink.

Answer 9

We are one race, that is HUMAN! I don't care if religion teaches us this, or we learn it from experience. We are ONE race

Answer 10

I believe every religion does that. Its the individual that makes his personal choice.
