    In my opinion, its just disguised racism...He is essentially saying black people and the other non white races were animals on noahs ark..
    Listen specifically at 0:45 minutes..

    The most dangerous white person is one that "thinks" they know the inner-workings of a black person's mind.

    I agree.

    This is why I don't really like religion all that much. Someone will always use it to justify their own personal beliefs.

    Ronja,religion is a major part of Blacks for many centuries. You rarely see a black person who is a atheist or agnostic. If so they are a small minority.

    Soulthinker, ,religion is a major part of Whites for many centuries. You rarely see a white person who is a atheist or agnostic. If so they are a small minority.

    What's your point?

    Just because a lot of people believe in something, doesn't mean I have to embrace whatever they believe in. I considder myself Christian, but there are still many, many forms of Christianity I absolutely despite.
