I know it is vogue to blame Whitey for all the problems in the world, but that is neither historically accurate nor intellectually honest. The fact of the matter is that the African slave trade would never have flourished if the Africans themselves didn't profit off the capture and sale of slaves to the foreign slave traders. The slave trade still exists in Africa and the Middle East today despite Whitey getting out of the game over 150 years ago.
First of all, slavery would have happened in the new world regardless. If the Europeans wouldn't have bought them, they would have waged war and forced them into enslavement. Just ask Badu Bonsu II, who was hung and decapitated by the Dutch, after defending his people from being enslaved.
I get that you are attempting to justify what Europeans did, but the argument won't rationalize the real truth of the matter. If you buy something, are you not entirely responsible for its well being there after? If you buy a dog from a pet shop, and you decide to take it home to starve and beat it, are you not the suspect responsible for animal abuse? Upon conviction are you going to plead innocent and place sole blame on the pet shop? No because that would be irrational. Placing blame on Africans for the racial inferiority built slavery system of the European is irrational.

No one is letting Arabs fly for their racism.
I think money is the root of all evil.
If money is the root of all evil, then perhaps all charitable donations should be stopped immediately.

I'm not attempting to justify anything. I am merely pointing out the facts of the matter as they applied centuries ago as well as how they apply to today. As for the rest of your ignorant diatribe... Sorry to inform you that nobody cares about your hatred of white people.

Because of racism, the "inferior" races of the world were largely subject to exploitation, humiliation and/or even enslavement by the "superior" and "civilized" Western nations of the world.
Because of racism, there have been double standards between the way that "inferior" races especially non-whites and whites have been treated. If it is unacceptable for Japan to conduct whaling practices on grounds of the preservation of endangered species, why is Australia not saying anything about the conduct of European whaling nations like Norway and Iceland?
Because of racism, anti-Muslim sentiments (especially after 911 and even today) in the world have pushed more Muslims into the terrorist war and be brainwashed by extremists.
Because of racism, many people in the West have criticized countries like Japan and South Korea for their strong xenophobic sentiments and policies when even their own countries (especially the US) still experience consistent racial profiling and stereotypes to this day.
It would be especially great to know what those, who have good friends of other races or experienced a different culture, think about this.
Isn't racism of the "inferior" and "superior" category is the direct result of influence from the evolution theory?
Seems I recall a certain Olympic runner, Jesse Owens, debunking the idea of the Nazis being of a superior race.
WE are all of one race; the human race. we all came from Noah and his family of the eight sole survivors of the world wide global flood. ( Course, I am stating the truth that I believe )
So one could say that the evolution theory is the root of all evil then?
If not, what can evolutionists say that would deter other evolutionistic minded individuals not to use natural selection as an excuse to do evil to "preserve the superior gene pool from throwbacks in the evolutionary chain ladder"?
Yes, I am aware that evil people can use any religion to commit acts of evil; but we are talking about your OP which designated that there are inferior people and superior people and you will not find that kind of classification as an excuse to do evil in a religion, even though religion does that classification differently.
Anyway, by the classification of what is inferior and what is superior, doesn't that line of thinking stems solely from the evolution theory point of view or not to make the evolution theory the root of that evil?
I don't waste my time debating with racists or immature adults. Welcome to the killfile.

I take it someone forgot to teach you the difference between a parable and the truth.
