I absolutely agree with your post, Telesphorus.
We cannot reject people who are mixed race.
I also agree with this. Mixed-race people are fully capable of being Catholics and attaining Salvation. They had no choice in their conception and it isn't their fault for their parents actions.
No one I think, wants to see the land of their ancestors handed over to foreigners. Do we want to see a brown Europe and America, with only a small fraction of the population being purely white?
I certainly don't. My Irish ancestors fought to free their land from British occupiers and now Ireland is facing another invasion; one from the 3rd World yet, no one does anything about it:
My stance is Ireland for the Irish, Britain for the British, Italy for the Italians, Germany for the Germans, Africa for the Africans, and Asia for the Asians. These are the ancestral homelands of these peoples and they have every right to keep it theirs.
I will confess, I think I am certainly capable of loving and of marrying a woman of another race, and I do not think it would be a sin, although it might show a lack of consideration of the possible difficulties.
Personally, I'm only attracted to women of my own race, it is (as you said) purely instinctive.
If a tiny percentage of people married outside their race, and mass migrations were not permitted, there would be no serious social problems with miscegenation. Individuals might suffer for it, but it not be an issue.
Yes, that's how I see it. Though, I feel if people do feel the need to marry someone of another racial stock they should move to a country were it would be the norm like in the Americas.
Another thing to consider is that miscegenation does not have the same effect in all places.
What might be tolerated in Brazil, should be discouraged in Japan.
That is very true. Miscegenation isn't a problem in places like Mexico, Central America, and most South American countries (with the exceptions of Argentina and Uruguay, which are predominately White) because most of these countries are mixed race to begin with. While the countries in Europe have for thousands of years remained the same race. Even the Japanese are strongly against Miscegenation; if you go to many of the cities in Japan you will see many signs in store windows which say "No Foreigners Allowed" or "Japanese Only".
I think it is a matter of degree. The complications of marrying someone from a starkly different racial group are less than those of marrying someone who is closer to one's own racial make-up.
That is also true. For example:
"For the overwhelming duration of Britain's history, miscegenation was not a practiced or a recognised phenomenon. Granted, the settling tribes of Celts, Angles, Saxons, Jutes, Vikings and Normans had their differences, but they still shared a common northern European heritage, so the eventual mingling that took place between them cannot be classified as miscegenation. Centuries later today there are still individuals who are mainly Anglo-Saxon by descent, such as in the Home Counties, or Viking as found in the Yorkshire counties. In step with the growth of a multicultural society in Britain that traces its origins from the 1950s with the arrival of Commonwealth immigrants, racial mixing gradually proliferated, mainly in London and other major cities. But it's exponential increase didn't transpire until as late as the 1990s." (
