I don't. I would hope that there is some form of empathy about you.
What kind of truck hauls bile?

Eh, if you want to take the resident one's word for it then hey, you have at it. The next time I get banned for stalking another poster will be my first...

And yet here you are arguing in a white lives matter thread. What is considered white has changed over time too. In the past, Irish and eastern Europeans were considered undesirable. I did a DNA test, hoping something interesting would show up (there were rumors of Native Americans), but alas, pure European.
That said, my great grandparents were polish and came to the USA through Ellis Island. They spoke little to no English. My grandmother told me how hated they were at the time (depression era), along with Jewish people at the time. My family intentionally forgot all of their language, changed their last name and culture to "fit in" out of fear.
So I don't believe in "white heritage", but there is polish heritage I missed out on. So I learned to make Borscht, yay internet.
Mind you, the other half of my family goes back to the American Revolution.

my great (x14) grandfather came over to the new world from holland (displaced englishman by three generations) about four hundred years ago
that's 26000 branches on the family tree at that generational divide
and i know of only a few
it would be foolish of me to deny that i probably have all sorts of different ethnicities in my genetic makeup

Seems like you've been trying to argue for a biological basis for race and the accuracy of racial stereotypes. But maybe you can clear that up for us.

Gee I quoted scripture and I summarized the biblical story. You really hate it when the Bible isn't what you thought it was.
Appeals to handwavey oral tradition then attacks me for interpreting the bible "wrongly".

there is a biological basis to race, and it involves more than melanin
see: fast twitch/slow twitch fibers, iq results, etc
ala teoni said:
i don't remember discussing racial stereotypes, unless you're referring to my comment about fried chicken and watermelon
and those aren't stereotypes, they're truths
He said I wasn't showing enough love and empathy. I guess he went off to have a cup of cocoa and have some fun with his Play-Doh. You know how Liberals are.
You quoted a little part of scripture.
That's like quoting a little bit of science- you can't make a grand point by one tidbit alone.

Oral tradition is a fundamental part of the Spirit moving through man- it is as valid as written tradition.
That's why you need to be in a traditional church

I wasn't. But since you're convinced I'm a racist, you feel I must have a sinister motive. When my undocumented Ghanian friend shared the news link with me on FB, I was intrigued. I didn't realize their subcutaneous skin was white. It wasn't pinkish white like my skin but still.,.but I'm guessing you will call my fascination a manifestation of racism. Perhaps you can help me get the photos on here? I wasnt able to.
