I think you are in a fix to find racism in the Bible. The first non-Jew to be brought to Christ was an Ethiopian. So much for racism!!! Jim

There aren't any. Paul was a racist when he was SAUL, but after he had his experience on the Damascus Rd with Jesus, he became convinced that everyone was created by God and as such, in their humanity, they are all equal. I'm sure that if you prooftext, (you know, like kidnappers with the newspaper, cutting out words to make the words say what THEY want) you will be able to find something. But if you read Paul's writings with his intention, and within the cultural context, and don't deconstruct the text like the kidnappers, you won't find any racism at all.

Is God racist? Your question sounds like a trapping question. What project can that possibly be? I'am sorry but if your looking for hate filled philosophies, your gonna have to look elsewhere.

Racism is a problem that everyone needs to destroy....
The KKK are an evil that needs to be abolished....
The bible is a novel and you need to open your eyes!
Go to the library for answers not church!

The bible doesn't promote racism. All people of all races are equal in God's eyes. He is no respecter of persons.

God supports being alike to be able to be together, like the Jews, if you werent Jew you werent chosen, but nothing has changed. true unity no matter your race can only come about naturally, like friends

Jesus said to love one another. Does that sound like racisim? God sees us all the same. We are all his children and should respect people of all races. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

Paul told a servant to serve his master just like he served God.
