I am very, very sorry that you have to go through that, Maxine.

Let's take a step back here, shall we?

Here is the Truth™ as given us by God in the Holy Bible:

1. There are different sorts of people, and God did not intend for the different sorts to co-mingle:

Joshua 23:11-13
11 Take good heed therefore unto yourselves, that ye love the Lord your God.
12 Else if ye do in any wise go back, and cleave unto the remnant of these nations, even these that remain among you, and shall make marriages with them, and go in unto them, and they to you:
13 Know for a certainty that the Lord your God will no more drive out any of these nations from before you; but they shall be snares and traps unto you, and scourges in your sides, and thorns in your eyes, until ye perish from off this good land which the Lord your God hath given you.

Ezra 9:10-12
10 And now, O our God, what shall we say after this? for we have forsaken thy commandments,
11 Which thou hast commanded by thy servants the prophets, saying, The land, unto which ye go to possess it, is an unclean land with the filthiness of the people of the lands, with their abominations, which have filled it from one end to another with their uncleanness.
12 Now therefore give not your daughters unto their sons, neither take their daughters unto your sons, nor seek their peace or their wealth for ever: that ye may be strong, and eat the good of the land, and leave it for an inheritance to your children for ever.

2. Some sorts of people are doomed to be the servants of other sorts of people, forever:

Genesis 9:20-27
20 And Noah began to be an husbandman, and he planted a vineyard:
21 And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered within his tent.
22 And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without.
23 And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it upon both their shoulders, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces were backward, and they saw not their father's nakedness.
24 And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him.
25 And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren.
26 And he said, Blessed be the Lord God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
27 God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.

It has been scientifically documented that people of Africa are descendants of Canaan. Feel free to read it.

The Bible speaks directly to those born into servitude:

Ephesians 6:5-6
5 Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ;
6 Not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart;

Colossians 3:22 Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God;

1 Peter 2:18 Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward.

3. Be careful whom you accuse of racist name-calling. Jesus called Hebrews "swine," and if you know anything about Judaism you know how they feel about pigs. So if you catch one of us using a term that is deemed insulting, you should know that we are simply following Jesus' example.

In conclusion: be careful when you are accusing us of being racist. We simply follow the Word of God to the letter. Are you saying the Bible is racist? If it is, that would mean that God is racist - is that the view you espouse?

Think about your answer - the wrong one will send you to !

So, you’re saying Jesus is a racist and heaven is segregated?
