That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard! How about we combine religion and education such as putting prayer back in the school and perhaps we'll see a decline in racially motivated fights? How about we improve education as a whole and offer an equal distribution of new books, supplies, qualified teachers, and parents who give a damn, to kids residing in urban and suburban schools?

Religion should have very little to do with racism. Racism and religion shouldn't even be in the same sentance. Atleast in Christianity, Christ preached loving everyone most of all your enemey.
Racism is taught, usually be ignorant stupid people with nothing better to do in their lives. Every race has strong/weak, inteligent/stupid people. While sterotypically certain things are true about certain races, it is no reason to hate someone.
Racism is taught. Stop teaching it, and racism will end. However there has been racism for 1000s of years, it will be hard to stop.

Religion, racism and education are not related in any way.
Religion is not allowed in schools anymore.
Most teachers teach from a social justice perspective so they oppose racism strongly.
Racism is something you learn from you parents, family and friends.
The best way to improve education is to trim the wings of the teachers union and to allow competition in education with school vouchers.

no, because most people dont focus on religion anyway and i believe racism is just trying to make somebody else feel bad so u can feel good bout urself and gettin rid of religion has nothing to do with education or racism, because no matter how much education u can, there is still gonna be racism

How do you see religion as a hinderance to education? And education being the cure for racism? Of course, religion is a cruch for the weak and feeble minded, but I don't see the connection between the three topics in your question.

i would not say that. my religion islam does not see color. there are people from all walks of life in mecca every year. as you can well see from malcolm x's story. i think that this starts in the home. parents should teach their children how to have respect for one another. as long as a person treats you with respect you should display the same behavior right back. honestly there really is no more room in this world for racism. life is to short.

There is a new film coming out Feb 23. It is a biography of Wilberforce, and the film is Entitled AMAZING GRACE.
It should be an enlightening film for all to see !!!
The film shows how religion brought an end to slavery in England, so don't miss it !!!
