My own post asking you where police brutality was? Now tell me, can a doctor cure someone without acknowledging an illness?

Try posting with less emojis, son, you look like your nuts haven't dropped.

You'll call me an ass, and say I'm ignorant, but decline to define exactly how I'm ignorant. Wouldn't it take an ass to know one, anyway?

Your insults and close-mindedness. Scroll up.

Who is against racial equality anyway? Why is this such a heated topic? How do you think we end racism in this country?

Great question. I think it centers around ignorance and convenience

I don’t agree that systemic racism or oppression occurs..... I do believe that there are laws that need to be changed..... police reform.... and also welfare reform that hurts minorities from creating a better life for themselves.

If I had written the article I would have lumped all of the Abrahamic religions together... but here, in the country I live in, Christianity is the main problem so it is rightfully highlighted as such.

You know how blaming Christians for the ignorance of the masses looks right ? I mean without looking I would say we have as a whole less Christians and for sure less practicing Christians every year certainly in the last 15-20 years . Logically when something is causing a problem and it is removed , the quality is improved . I’m not seeing a marked improvement in intelligence across the masses . This is where we get back to paying 100k for a degree doesn’t necessarily equate to being more or less intelligent. Don’t get me wrong , it looks good on paper and statistics but for an example of what I’m talking about .. I see kids all the time with $1000 iPhones , driving k40-70k vehicles , wearing $300 and going to college that’s costing them $80-100k out in the streets yelling about oppression , fascism and capitalism being bad . I don’t think that’s a Christian or religion problem . The average annual income for the world is less than $10,000, the median per-capita household income is $2,920 .. we have some first world problems but I don’t think Christianity is one of them as a whole . I would think being spoiled and being able to have anything we want, when we want it has caused more people to be less intelligent than any religion . 🤷‍♂️

I've asked you a hundred times now to enunciate your solution first, since you yourself are the one that began your engagement with me with accusations of 'race baiting' and assumptions (which you so gleefully like to insult others for having) about what I have or haven't done to decrease racism, or systemic racism, or whatever meaningless catchphrase you decided to use. I have shared my opinion on how to address issues in the black community numerous times before on this board. You are the one surging into this thread.

You have no authority to decide who is 'close minded' (woefully incorrect basic grammar). You have no authority to decide others are an 'ass' when they call you out. So you get to share first- beyond, again, meaningless catchphrases and slacktivist ********- and I'll be happy to discuss. I'm going to commit your oh so horrid cardinal sin of assuming you have nothing, and know nothing, because you've shown, well, nothing anywhere in this thread.

The article pointed out specific examples as to why American Christian philosophies contribute to anti-intellectualism. I don’t think being spoiled and anti-intellectualism correlate.

Really ? How many kids today or their parents know how to raise or acquire their own food if the grocery stores suddenly go empty? How many can perform a routine tune up on the automobile they drive or fix a simple problem on it if their iPhone quits working ? I would argue that it absolutely correlates and is even a larger problem then believing in god or going to church .

I welcome this conversation. Besides the things you mentioned, are the races completely equal in everything else in your opinion?

Sigh. I call it like I see it. The hypocrisy is just too much to comb through in your post. Kudos to you for sticking it out though.

But really, who cares about anything above not bolded? It’s like the riots to the movement. The bigger point is fixing what is clearly broken. To your question of my opinion on fixing the system:

It starts with awareness. Like us having this conversation. Discussing systemic racism. Letting people know how uncomfortable some of the stuff in this thread would make a black person.

You also immediately go to education reform. Some of us have no hope but maybe our kids do. Let’s tell history like it truly was. Have more student-oriented and specific classes. More general diversity in our classes.

After this first step is accomplished, ask me again. ☺️

Your turn!
