    Who cares? If skin color is the deciding factor for "trust", trust has no meaning.

    What makes it "idiotic"?

    A privilege is a special right, advantage, or immunity granted or available only to a particular person or group of people. The fact that you just got away with the use of that word in the above quote disqualifies it from being a privilege of Black people.

    So as long as I can point to a single instance of a single black person getting away with the items on "the list" they are no longer eligible for White Privilege, right?

    No, if you could point to Black people as a whole getting away with the items on the "the list" then they would no longer be a privilege of white people. That's like saying if a single Black person in the 1700's enjoyed the same luxury as a slaveholder, that would no longer prove Black people are in slavery...ridiculous.

    But yet, me as a single white person can cancel out Black Privilege. Oh the enormous power I hold in my hands!

    You are a hypocrite.

    You actually missed what I said. My reply referred to people not single persons.

    Name calling?? Did I call you one name? No, yet you resort to name calling. Matthew 5:22 — "But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment; whoever insults his brother will be liable to the council; and whoever says, ‘You fool!’ will be liable to the hell of fire."

    That's one channel out of how many stations geared toward the majority?

    Yep. And because white people are the majority, everything is geared towards them and prospering them.


    It's geared towards getting the money from Whites and giving it back to Whites for providing a service that's tailored for them. And if Blacks want to get these things they can, but nothing is going to be tailored just for them the majority of the time.

    That's called white privilege.

    Living in a white dominant context, white people receive the constant message that they are better or more important than Blacks. Why would they think this? Because everything is geared towards them.

    Textbooks and history books are white centric.
    What are considered "good neighborhoods" are white centric.
    The majority of our heroes and heroines are white centric.
    Movies. TV. Magazines. Newspapers. The majority are overwhelmingly white centric.

    The makeup counter?White centric.
    Shopping for clothes?White centric.
    Looking for the best schools? White centric.
    Depictions of Jesus? White centric

    White privilege skews everything towards the majority because they are the majority.

    "The fact that you just got away with the use of that word in the above quote disqualifies it from being a privilege of Black people."

    Yet you said I (only me) can cancel out Black Privilege.


    I call it what it is. You say that it takes a large number of black people to cancel out White Privilege, yet only little old me to cancel out Black Privilege. That's makes you a hypocrite.

    You are also a rule breaker, as it is against the rules here to question someone's salvation. Though I suppose you didn't just question it, you straight out said I wasn't saved.

    You do not that "people" and "person" is not the same word. One denotes plurality and the other singularity.

    So you're calling me a hypocrite stems from your intellectual deficiency to determine the difference between "people" and "person"? Interesting.

    Where can you show that I said you weren't saved? I stated a theological truth: Name calling proves a lack of salvation. You won't find one statement from me proclaiming YOU to not be saved...just that name calling is the characteristic of the unsaved. I think deductive reasoning is claiming the former.

    You aren't even worth talking to any longer. You make no sense, yet blame me for reading comprehension problems.

    This one kind of slid under the radar.

    Good one, car pro.


    I worked as an engineer at BOSE Corp (the Wave radio people) in Framingham Mass, for a long time. We had many, many ethic groups working there. You could mix them up on the assembly line all you wanted, but in the dining room, they ate with their own people. All of them. And the loudest, rowdiest table, every meal, is where the black men ate their lunch. You could hear them all over the dining room.

    One day, the subject was Michael Jackson. Again, everyone could hear this. Only a few of the men would admit to owning anything from Michael Jackson. And let me tell you, they were NOT being nice to each other about it. It was hilarious to hear them. After prodding everyone to man up, one of the black men stood up and yelled….

    "Michael Jackson sold 700 million records……one of you niggers got a Michael Jackson record at home!!!!"


    I still crack up thinking about that one.

    Let's recap...


    So as you can see, Black Privilege can be canceled out by a single white person (as evidenced by the first quote from robustheologian), yet it takes "Black people as a whole" to cancel out White Privilege (as evidenced by the second quote from robustheologian).

    Yes, hypocrisy.

    Problem again though is that it seems the majority, at least the vocal spiritual leaders in the black community, support Black genocide being done daily at Planned parenthood, and the President has been setting forth the most anti christian polocies and agenda of any President, while professing to follow Jesus, has he not?

    i!
    And it was the Democratic party that kept on going against Black civil rights, and kept up Jim Crow laws, and it was ONLY due to the republcans in congress at the time that the Civil rights acts of 1960's were passed

    What vocal spiritual leaders in the black community? Does the white community have an equivalent of these vocal spiritual leaders who support Black genocide by the police?

    It's a secular office. If you don't like the job he's doing, elect someone else.


    Yep and those Democrats slid right on over to the current Republican Party with their racism and racial prejudice.

    The mere fact that you got that from my explanation is amazing...in a pitiful way. You should take that plank out your eye, add some legs to it, put a book on it and read. It would help your comprehension a ton. :laugh:

    Which spiritual leaders support that?

    And you never addressed the Southern Baptist Convention's support of slavery (which if one accounts for the lives lost in the transatlantic slave trade then slavery would be Black genocide)?

    And like I said Black people voting Democrat is their choosing the lesser of two evils.

    I guess the problem is that I read your words plainly for what they said and didn't twist them. I'll have to learn that you don't mean what you say.

    *Sigh* Let's recap...

    You make the claim:
    I then say:
    The word "no" means that the claim of a single Black person getting away with the items on the list does NOT change the fact that those items are that of white privilege.

    You then make the claim (and without proof might I add):
    No one ever (no one outside the voice(s) in your head) said you alone prevent the idea of Black privilege. Your use of the n word along with other (though certainly not all) white people's use of that word prevents it from being a privilege for Black people.

    Then you resort to the anti-salvific use of name calling with no regard for Jesus' sermon on the Mount (Matt. 5:22)....but your use of name calling and your lack of regard for Jesus' instruction concerning such (since name calling is not the will of the Father) is between you and Him (Matt. 7:21-23).

    Let's see if you can read all of this plainly AND understand it.
