Featured Whites Must Confront Reality

Always got an exception for what you do , huh?

 

I don't have a clique, and that's for sure. And I would never play Jedi mind tricks on the paranoid.

 

If you say so.

 

But some kind of way , you keep ending up in my threads. You aren't worried about ignoring anyone. You just want to push your Democrat Party is the party of death and they are slaughtering babies mumbo jumbo so that your political party of choice can prosper.

Too much wickedness in that co-party of death. It will not prosper as the blocks of wickedness in this country are getting ready to tumble.

 

Ann people online have been assuming things about me for a long time. White privilege often assumes that people are a certain profile when it is challenged. I've never mentioned my age, skin color, marital status, number of kids, etc because as I look at conversations, I've noticed that displays of such information allows for certain biases and formation of cliques to develop.

I am about God's truth and treating my neighbor the way that I want to be treated out of the overflow of my love for Christ.

Now you've got to wonder why folks want to pigeonhole me as this or that. :laugh:

 

Ann, I am, as I believe a lot of folks are, righteously angry at the wickedness coming out of the church. We can't do anything to change the hearts of the people outside the church other than to point them to Jesus. But when the folks who are supposed to have the regenerate hearts are spewing the same gutter filth as those who are lost and have an excuse, it disgusts me.

It is impossible to move this country forward until this country deals with what it's done in the past. And I'm not talking about those outside the church, but those within.

It's a fact, that no matter how White Americans try to deny it, that White Americans benefited from and are still benefiting from slavery and Jim Crow. It's a fact that being white in this country has certain advantages over being non-white.

And until white people...white CHRISTIANS are ready to admit this, this country isn't moving anywhere.

It was George Bush in 2004 who said as he visited Goree Island, a holding place for captured slaves in Africa, and spoke of the wrongs and injustices of slavery.

Maybe you should.

You know why we study the Old Testament? Because it's God's word showing us truth in the context of our past.

I have yet to hear a white person complain about any school teaching American History. Does that not dwell on the past?

As I've said before, white privilege does not want to deal with the dirty truth. At the mere mention of an apology, white privilege causes people to recoil and insist that they don't owe an apology for something they didn't do.

It would do this nation a world of good if Congress issued a joint resolution decrying slavery and its aftermath and the continued effects it had and continues to have on the lives of so many.

But that's political. I don't expect that because that would bring out the "Neither we nor our ancestors had anything to do with slavery, so why should we apologize?" crew.

It's been evidenced on this board.

Anytime the House or the SBC specifically has attempted to apologize, the same "I didn't own any slaves" rhetoric that the unsaved dish out shows its head on this board.

By white Christians turning a blind eye, the sins of the father become the sins of the passive son. By refusing to acknowledge the benefits that slavery has delivered to Whites today, it affirms the wickedness of the forefathers who did those things.

 

Sure Darrel. I always stir up unGodliness by pointing it out for what it is.

Yes I'm black or white.
