Some of my friends parents claim that they are not racist, but when faced with the fact that their children are dating with someone from different race, they would object. I even know one case where the girl are being slapped by the parents because of it.
I would conclude that the above pattern can be used to prove whether you are a racist or not.
It is as simple as asking yourself:
If you have a kid, and he or she is dating people from other racial group, how would you react. If you object – based on the racial difference-, then you are a racist.
Oh, the same principle also applies for religious difference.
For both question, Indi and I agree that would not object our child be hindered by racial or religious difference. We would object if the person our child is dating is a rapist, a corrupt person, liar, materialistic, hypocrit, etc, etc. Our judgement would not be based on color skin, ethnicity, or belief.
Ask yourself, are you a racist?
And if you are a racist, how pathetic. This is the third millenium, for God’s sake!
