But you arent talking about rights, nor are the people you have been having these discussions with, you are talking about the opinion on whether it is right or wrong to dislike a person or their relationship based on the color of their skin or the sex of their partner.
He's obviously beyond your help. Don't even go there. I actually find his logic fascinating since Obama is undeniably unique as are a number of influential bi-racials.
The OP has the right to believe whatever he wants. Neither he or any of the rest of us have the right to interfere with others displaying their affection in public. That is the price we pay for having them leave us display affection in public with our partners.
God made us unique. It is important we preserve that. Interracial marriage meddles with that.
Jesus also said nor Greek, nor Jew, but the same in God's eyes. And when Moses married an Ethiopian, God did not lock lowly on him. In fact, Miriam was punished for criticizing Moses for it.

Because liberal Democrats thrive on telling other people how to live their lives. It's what their party is all about.
