It is not very impressive spouting big chunks of rhetoric when it is not one's own and saying "THERE" like a fraud putting the last splash of paint onto someone else's work of art and claiming it as their own.

By all means quote others who have researched the topic thoroughly, it is difficult to debate a topic without providing corroborating "evidence," but please do not claim other's words as your own by omitting a reference to the author.

Back to the point of the use of the word "Racism"versus "Bigotry" or "Prejudice." I would, myself, have no qualms in using the word "Racism" in describing anti-semitism as Jewish people were, as Semetic peoples, racially distinct from other Caucasians before the Holocaust. This ancestry has been diluted somewhat since, but it still remains and many Jews bear the unique phsyical characteristics associated with that race.

Likewise, in some situations, anti-Christian sentiments can be considered "Racist" as the Christian religion is often incorrectly linked with Western culture. Another striking example of race/religion associations is one we all know only too well - racism against those of Arabic descent (ironically also Semetic peoples) on the basis that they are assumed to be Islamic, and therefore are terrorists.

An interesting point to ponder. I do agree that the word "Racism" is bandied around and misused constantly, as an unjustified insult or "shock" value.

I am a bit confused by this meaning?

Being Jewish is a religion and not a race: Check your
main stream History books and Encyclopedia.
The first Christians were Jewish.

I agree with ittybitty kitty. Historians and theologians have traditionally viewed the jewish peoples as both a distinct race AND a distinct religion.
And I personally would consider someone who dislikes a jewish person based on the fact that they are jewish a racist.

parts quoted from The Encyclopedia Americana

(I appolized for the "now politically incorrect" for colors)

Quote:

Their is no such thing as a pure race per anthroplogists.

Blumembach who is the founder of anthropology in 1775
established 5 human races which differed in skin color.
Caucasion or white, Mongolian or yellow, Ethopian or black,
American or Red, Malayan or brown.

Very freqentley many individual humans could not be classified
as any one race.

incert: It would appear that anybody is intitled to
create races to suit their fancy. This prostitution of the race
concept reach it's peak in Nazi Germany.......................>>>>>


P.S. I am sadden that anyone could hate somebody simply
because of their religion or skin color.

Timing... I'm watching last night's Law and Order:SVU".... anyway, there's a baby with tay sachs.... the doctor says: tay sachs is primarily limited to certain ethnic groups, jewish, ...

anyway, it got me to thinking of the difference between 'race' and "ethnic group"....

any thoughts?

If you are indeed a so called christian, then please start acting like one,you are however HUMAN, i guess when someone is attacking your beliefs or opinions as you see it, you are going to react, but if you must preach, then practice what you PREACH ok
