one must have "approved" opinions. If one is not in favor of mixed race marriages, he has "hateful comments" whereas those are in favor have "forceful responses."

Good point.

At least that’s what happens when you eat their pseudo food.

I wonder when fat people will raise a stink about being omitted from food commercials. The people I see in fast-food commercials are 1/2 the weight of the people I see in the same fast-food establishments; if they can’t show cars doing stunts of which they are incapable in commercials, then they should have to show the effects of eating Frankenfood as well...

Get the “toasted oats” at Publix. They are BETTER Than Cheerios...larger, more crispy. Been purchasing those since the first ad came out.

I don’t think that condones interracial marriage. It is a statement that all are welcome in God’s arms.

Leftists are projecting their racism on conservatives.

I looked her up - Somali born, raised in Holland.

Not of the same culture as “African-Americans”.

It’s the culture, not the melanin, that drives the bigotry.

If amongst believers God makes no distinction between Jew and Gentile, why should we?

Thank you both for making my day. Cynwoody, for your meme, and fso301, for your Biblical reminder that we all are One in Christ Jesus.

Why did the first ad cause you to switch from Cheerios to Publix 'toasted oats'?

For starters the problems a bi-cultural marriage brings to children. Second a blurring of the cultural lines. He made us different for a reason why should we try and melt it all back together?

I wish pundits like Rush would sop calling him African American and call him biracial.

Since he self-identifies as AA, to not call him that would be (all together now) RAACISSST!

Do you believe interracial marriage is against the plan or will of God?

If so, do you have a Biblical basis for that?

The only firestorm was among liberals and blacks.

That’s an interesting Liberal meme. They created a straw man and knocked it over.
