Facts don't care about my feefees. We gotta look at the facts and learn to deal with them appropriately. How to interpret the facts and how to deal with them is where things get more complicated. Racism to me means, one ethnic group is inherently of more worth than another. In my Christian belief system, everyone has the same inherent value as an image of God. Even if someone is inbred and retarded, that's not his fault, so you shouldn't treat that person as lesser than you based on their genetic make up. Belief system and character has much more impact than race. As a Christian, t's easier to get along with a truly believing Christian African than a truly believing Satanist American. Why are Americans at each others throats right now? It's belief system, left vs right, not race. Race and genetics have less of an impact on society than belief system and character shaped by that belief system.

That belief of superior-inferior race breeds all sorts of evil, so I reject it. Instead, we gotta be rational and open about our cultural and genetic differences and the bad behavior we are more prone towards. For example, if an alcoholic gene runs in the family, you gotta acknowledge that shit and not drink, otherwise you might end up with problems. That's how I view this topic. The topic of race is obviously complex and needs much discussion, but racism in the way I view it, as inherent superiority of one people group vs an inferior other, leads to evil and needs to be rejected. Acknowledging genetic and cultural differences in the discussion of how to best run a society is not in and of itself racist. Racism depends on how these differences are being interpreted and what beliefs a person holds in regards to those differences. If someone is genetically prone to more anger, you can acknowledge that and deal with this problem without judgment of that person as inherently valuable.
