Re: Yo.
I see, you haven't ever read the Bible.
First of all, God makes it clear that some people are lower in His eyes than others. For example, Jesus initially refused to help a Greek woman whose daughter had a demon, telling her that it wasn't right to give the children's bread to the dogs. Yes, He was calling her inferior, subhuman, a dog. Only when she debased herself and begged Him, saying that even the dogs eat the crumbs the children drop, did He reluctantly agree to help her.
Mark 7. Also, Matthew 15. Read it.
As for "neighbour", I have a little homework for you to do. I want you to go to either bible.com or biblegateway.com. Set it to the King James Version, and search "neighbour".
See what it means in context. There are three common meanings; I'll let you find out what they are.
You will soon realize that not one of them means "anybody and everybody". In fact, not only is that not a common meaning; it's not the meaning even once.
You may also wish to search "hate". This way, you can find out who the Lord hates, and who He commands us to hate. The Bible informs us much more about who God hates than who He loves; He only loves those who obey Him completely. Everyone else, He will torture for all eternity in a Lake of Fire.
You don't think of that as "love", do you?
Now, your selected post does not demonstrate what you accused us of, which is cherry-picking verses for personal gain. Try again.
