If I did not respect CC and everyone else here, I would be a bit more explicit.
I posted these as legitimate questions. I'll change it.
EVERYONE ELSE:
Skip question 16 for all I care. I find it interesting that if you look back, the three largest Portestant denominations split over the question of slavery in the US...and, let us see...BLACKS were the ONLY slaves by that point. (The predominance of overt racism was found in the south. I am not minimizing the covert racism found elsewhere. I am not targeting my friends south of the Mason-Dixon line)
Southern preachers taught that Blacks were cursed by GOD and were ment to be slaves.
100 years and a very bloody war later, many people were still preaching that those of African descent were inferior, and used the Bible to prove it.
At the present, there is a split developing over a number of issues, including homosexuality.
Addled-Pit, go for it. Ask me. Quit assuming.
And go get some psychological help.
