First and foremost you have to acknowledge that racism is as natural as the sun coming up. It is nature expediting the migratory process. Once you start to believe THAT, then the hatred and ill-will feelings will diminish. A crime against a person of a different skin color is NOT a race crime, ITS just a crime, nothing special. To hate someone because of their skin color is absurd.

I thought I'd have to think about this problem all day, but now I can move on to the next huge dilemma. How do we rid the world of those of you who are, for the lack of a better name, know-it-alls?

My inlaws live in North Idaho and have a picture of Adolph Hitler hanging in their home-surrounded by roses.
They try to convince us that although there are a few nice Jews, the majority of them run the planet and it is their purpose in life to destroy the white race. (They believe Jews are not white). They do not believe the Holocaust ever took place--they call it a "vaudeville show" to promote guilt in the white race.
They believe black people are being used by Jews to destroy whites through drugs and crime. They believe this is possible because Black people are close in intelligence to apes.
They also posit the idea that the darker skinned blacks are less intelligent than the lighter skinned ones.
They teach that whenever we see a person of color or with a disability on television it is because the Jews are trying to convince whites that it is a good idea to dilute the white race with imperfect blood. They believe all of this and tell anyone and everyone who might sit still long enough to listen about it.
My ex-father in law lost his job at a university in another state because he sent the Jewish professors "Happy Hitler's Birthday" cards.
So, I believe that although it is absurd to hate someone because of their skin color, I can't assume that there are no absurd people out there who take pleasure in it.

I respectfully disagree. I think a precious few are diametrically opposed to racism. The way to abolish racism is to abolish the concept of race. We are all human beings, first and foremost. Superficial and cultural differences shouldn't play such a huge role.

"He who says he is in the light, and hates his brother, is in darkness until now. He who loves his brother abides in the light, and there is no cause for stumbling in him. But he who hates his brother is in darkness and walks in darkness, and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes." (1 John 2: 9-11)

Better solution - interbreed, that'll take care of the race problem. Then we get to work on the other discriminatory stuff (gender, age, etc.).

I agree 100%. I am not rascist at all. I believe there is bad people in every race, and there is good in ever race.
