I didn't say that prejudice had to do exclusively with race. My example explained that. And anyone who can't admit that, deep down, they struggle to overcome their inherent prejudices, whatever they may be, is lying not just to me but to himself. No prejudices against Dems? You don't tend to put most of them into a certain anti-war category when you see that D by there name? Just one example of prejudging but there are thousands of ways we do it and it is natural when trying to keep the world orderly in our mind.
But the biggest sign that someone is harboring something very deep is when they cannot see a clear sign of unChristian, hateful behavior and call it for what it clearly is. For that, I am still waiting. No comparisons, no caveats. Just that this was a completely hateful tirade that should be condemned by any moral person, especially a person of Christ.
You are missing my point.
Racial prejudices are a product of environment. And if the environment that produces racism doesn't exist, then a person will not be racist. Sure, that person may notice differences. But, they will not dislike that person if there is no reason to.
However, if you point out to a non-racist person that people are automatically prejudice, and that person "over there" that looks different is also prejudice, then that non-racist person may feel threatened.
Much like what we hear today from the Left.
I have no animosity towards blacks. However, I am constantly told that it is my fault and I am responsible for all of the social ills in the black community. And some have even suggested that I pay reparations for those ills.
And I am also told that it is okay for a black to make a racist statement, whether it is self deprecating or directed at whites or other minorities, because they or their family have been oppressed and suffered.
BTW, this was one of the major reasons why I left the Democrat party many years ago -- because of their toleration and perpetuation of racism.
Kind of a convoluted explanation but how I feel.
