Found this delightful little article about race relations. And since everyone and their mother says there ought to be a discussion about race in this country, I figured it was worth a post.
As I read it, I cannot help but recall how all other races are allowed to have enormous grand racial supremacy meetings--but not those whites!
I think that what always catches my attention with these articles is the double standard, more than anything. Farakhan is tolerated, but not southern white rednecks. And I am also amused at the link in the article to another discussion as to whether or not racism is a mental disease.
Thank you Time Magazine. Like most major media, yer as divisive as ever: http://newsfeed.time.com/2012/07/06/whites-only-pastor-conference-has-west-alabama-residents-upset/?iid=nf-article-mostpop1

Whites Only Pastor Conference Has West Alabama Residents Upset
Why hosting a whites only pastor conference did not fly with the people of Winfield, Alabama.

Members of the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) participate in a cross lighting ceremony at a Klansman's home in Warrenville, South Carolina October 23, 2010. KKK Imperial Wizard Duwayne Johnson said it was the first public cross lighting in 50 years.
The good folk of Winfield, Ala. have been very upset by the news of an annual pastors conference taking place near their town. Not because of any animosity towards religious gatherings, but rather to the stipulation that only white Christians are invited.

Tyler Cantrell, the manager of Norris Music in downtown Winfield, discovered a flier for the conference earlier this week. “It was put up throughout the town in the middle of the night. When everyone was asleep and without the permission of the business owner(s),” he told WBRC news.
Despite the fact that the three-day conference in neighboring Lamar County was reportedly festooned with confederate flags and banners bearing Ku Klux Klan and white-supremacist slogans, and that it was scheduled to end July 6th with a “Sacred Christian Cross Lighting Ceremony” — not unlike the kind performed by the Klan –organizers denied that his organization was a hate group. “The white race is God’s chosen people,” William C. Collier, the organizer of the event, told WBRC. “We don’t have the facilities to accommodate other people. We haven’t got any invitations to black, Muslim events. Of course we are not invited to Jewish events and stuff.”
The Christian Identity Ministries, which is running the event along with the Church of God’s Chosen, also claims on its website that the “Europeans and their descendants are the chosen people of God.” Ministry founder Mel Lewis spoke with a reporter from WAFF TV and claimed that the town’s mayor was violating their right to free speech and religious freedom.
“We are not breaking any laws. We’re not violating any ordinances. We’re bringing the Word of God to people who want it, obviously, or they wouldn’t be here,” said Lewis.

However the town’s Mayor, Wayne Silas, sees it differently. He told WBRC that “Business people are upset. The city is upset. The city of Winfield does not condone this.”

There is no such thing as 'racism'.

.........................
No one has ever presented Any evidence from the Bible, a Pope, Church Council, Father, Doctor, Saint, historian, INQ, Bps Pastoral Letter, nor Catholic Encyclopedia or Dictionary that there is or ever has been such a person as a 'sede vacantist' or a state of affairs known as 'sede vacantism' before the V2 era.
