@kellyjay saidDo you really believe that American slavery must be examined through a prism that deliberately factors OUT race and Christianity?
There were many people behind slavery, and not all of them were white; as a matter of fact, not all slave owners were white either, convenient facts being overlooked here.
@kellyjay saidIf the moral evaluation of American slavery consciously set out to examine whether blacks enslaved millions of white Americans in the C19th too, in order to create a sort of "balance", would you then be prepared to acknowledge the racial reality of slavery in the US in the C19th?
As I'm pointing out, we have an issue; it isn't skin-related; it is a sin-related condition of the human heart.
@suzianne saidI’ve done the research about the ideology of the founders of the organization called Black Lives Matter and it’s Marxism.
When I'm told by Republicans to "do some research", I'm usually stunned by their inability to see the irony in what they're saying.
You obviously haven’t looked into it.
My advice is to stop believing everything CNN and the Daily Kos say and look into things yourself.
@sonship saidYou seem to be trying to run pass interference for Christian white supremacists. Everybody agrees the Nazis were bad, sonship. However, what does your whataboutism do to address the OP? The tu quoque logical fallacy is, of course, a propaganda technique. Is that your intention here?
Darwinian Influence and sources of Eugenics, Nazism and White Nationalism

The ultimate root of Christianity is the root of the Cosmos, which is of course not a root per se.
We are transitory sprouts, subject to many influences, but no matter how limited we still have as much power to choose as we have, including which way to look and which way to develop:
Toward the Sublime or the coarse.
To feed the good wolf or the bad.
To turn one's face toward the invisible Sun, or not.

A sprout of the Sublime – no matter at what remove – has no need to smoke anything.
