I see so many people on here that are racist to other religions or cultures. I was just wondering why you are or why you are not. If you are why are you exactally and if your not same ?
If you are not then good for you and may you always prosper and I hope we can learn from one another and make the racist people grow to live a life of peace...

I choose not to be a racist

I cannot say I am a racist, but we all have biases and preferences, which may be interpreted by some in a negative way. It's really all based on individual choices. We live in a free society where innocent acts could be easily misread as racism. That said, I have preferences that could be regarded as racist.... like marrying within my race, enjoying my mother's cooking over other ethnic food, having best friends who are of my race, et al.

Not a Racist, but I've experienced it many times. I am Hispanic and married to a Caucasian. Our son repeatedly gets heckled about being "part white" at school. Like white people aren't cool or whatever. He is o.k. with it though and doesn't return the anti-tolerance. I was raised to love every race and see everyones qualities.

No!
i come from a country home to 4 major religions and i try my best to respect others religions, and i'm actually anti-racist, so u can imagine my horror when i enter this forum and read all the nasty stuff people say about Islam! i am also appalled at what the atheists say of Christians, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists....
but what's worse is saying such vile stuff about God/Allah and religious leaders such as Muhammad (PBUH) and Jesus (PBUH).... things like this REALLY make me go mad!

I don't think most of us are racist....but we all say racist remarks......whether you admit to it or not.....at one point we have all made a racist remark....im not a racist person.....i personally could care less what da color of your skin is....but ive probably been pissed off by some person and made a racial comment.....even about someone who is the same race as i.....no one is truly not racist....if you are then you must watch everything you say all the time and i find that impossible....

No, I am not racist. I think it is an unjust ingnorance to think people are better or worse because of the color of their skin. When I was young, I became afraid of black people because of a misundertanding between my parents and my teacher. I guess I am not innocent of seeing differences in the races, but my family, through living their life in discouragement of racial discrimination, taught me it was wrong.

I'm not racist. God created us all from Adam & Eve so how can one race be better than another?
Acts 17:26, "And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth"
Thank you for the blessing. May we all seek truth...

I am not racist.
I was born of mixed race, so I have been through alot of prejudices on both sides and I do not want anyone else to feel that way.
And I treat people the same no matter what they believe.

what kind of question is this? why ask an open ended question, then say if you are (a) good if you are (b) get better at life.
this is stupid. as for if someone is "racist", i'm sure they aren't fully aware of the fact, and at least open to admit it...
you may consider someone from the south racist, but to them, that's who they are, so i assume they should "learn from others" or whatever your dictatorial POV is?

Absolutely not. People are people. I believe Maya Angelou is a great woman. I believe Mohammed Ali is a great man. I believe John F. Kennedy was a great man. I honestly cannot think of a white woman I greatly admire.
I've known black people I admire and black people I can't stand. I've known white people I admire and white people I can' t stand.
To separate people white from black is ignorant & primitive. Hello???? This is 2007!!!
People are people. I HATE racism. They are a sad and hopeless people in general.

First you must define racism. To determine that human abilities are determined by race. So one becomes prejudice. I do not care one way or another about other religions,I put my faith in the one who made me God and the one who saved me Christ. Any other is non and void. God does not hate religion or cultures he hates sin,now if these things cause you to act in sin and push around others, that for you and them is sin.....
