Jesus was NOT with the religion that came out of Rome--nor ANY of its 33,999 branches. They are false religions serving a false god. The world better look while it still can.

Ah ha! Now I know where some of your wisdom comes from.
We once had a parakeet that immediately flew to and landed on the head of any visitor.
BUT, he only shat on the untrustworthy ones.
(and some think modern human beings are so superior, huh?)

It's so tiring trying to keep up with how and what guilt I'm supposed to feel just for existing.

We know you don't feel guilt. It requires honest self-reflection and empathy.

Racism has never been a part of the Christian believe through the authorship of Jesus Christ, as Jesus Christ would welcome anyone who convert from all nations of the world ..... so if any churches which reject people who converts to Christ would reject Jesus Christ , and would fall into to spiritual authority of antichrist ....... Does not say the Christians do not have enemies which they do but Jesus calls to be compassionate and pray for all people to bless them ....... Even the support for governments who are called racist who try to stop illegal immigration , where people try to skip customs and brake in the country , where this is not racism , as it is illegal to brake into a country and anyone through out the world is not racist offence .........

This specific racism is a product of southern culture, combined with depraved and lost "churches". That's 'churches' in a building and membership sense, not 'the church' as in the 'body of Christ'.

Jesus spoke out against such vile hatred of others, so Jesus would be more disgusted by this racism than any of us could ever be.

Get it straight; the roots and causes. This is the worst of American culture, to the core. Throwing stones at the wrong target creates more problems for everyone.
