Is there a difference in a white skin colored person not wanting to be touched by a non-white person as compared to a Muslim person not wanting to be touched by a non-Muslim?
Are they not both two sides of the same coin - that is ... ..bigotry?
Why is it so easy to see it's wrong to teach people God hates Asian people and will send them to rot in the deepest pit of Hell (in essence teaching people to despise Asians). And yet so hard to see it's wrong to teach people God hates polytheistic people or atheistic people or Jewish or Shinto or Hindu or Muslim or Xian or whatever?
People think it was just fantastic when Mohammad refused to enter Mecca until all the "idols" (read 2000 years of Arab religious heritage) was smashed to bits. Does this not tell you something? Couldn't you see it reflected in the destruction of the 2000 year old Buddhas in Afghanistan? It seems pretty easy to see to me.
As a society it's time we move past this line of backwards tribal thinking?
