The bible if you read it word by word is very confusing. People interpret the bible according to their own needs or viewpoints. Imagine a God who feels we are not all alike? Imagine a God who things we shouldnt love andknows we should judge not and thinks and knows we should accept all? Can you imagine a God being so small minded and ignorant? I cant. God would frown upon racists and He knows they will pay for their ignorance big time. Now or later.

NO. But others judge you by the company you keep. My daughter went to rock concerts and other public functions with "someone outside her race" but Iwas there as a chaparone so there were few if any "loose lips", spreading stories.
Many GIs have found true love with "someone outsede your race" so it depands on the circumstances.
You'd be surprised as to who whould be the most negative about it and call names. "Seal" is happily married to one of the Victoria Secrets models, one of the most beautiful ladies according to many and most. They have at least two children. Of course, they are a special case. Many interracial couples break up just like the "regular" kind.
Biblically Solomon had many wives from many countries. Solomon most likely fathered children by several...times were different esp for kings. Nowadays...I would vote for any candidate that had a religion with roots in patriotism not because he had lots of wives or girlfriends. The presidential candidate who has the religion issue has a history of doing liberal things in a very liberal state. Who is he/she?

No where. I repeat no where does it say that man must marry within their race in fact it doesn't even mention race. God never said let every white man be with a white woman. Or every indian man with an indian woman. It says let one man be with one woman. The only restrictions are that they have to be a Christian/Jew it says "Do not marry a non believer."
There really isn't such thing as race.

if it was a sin to date outside your race then going by the bible the only races would be african races or arab races,seeing how they were pretty much the only races involved in the bible

Remember eating shellfish is a "sin" in that book and take their definition of "sin" with a grain of salt.
It's not a "sin" in the eyes of the divine at all.

Only if you're an 18th century puritan.
Come on. If God didn't want us to be together he wouldn't have made us all beautiful humans! We're not different species, for God's sake.

only heterosexual relationships between a man and a woman are allowed, the bible doesn't specify race.
But in my opinion, homosexual relationships are OK too.

No, God meant for us to procreate with any race.

Nope, it isn't. We're all human so we can marry anyone that's human (skin colour doesn't matter)
