« Last post by Matthew on Today at 09:21:10 PM »Nice joke, but NO it's not even a sin. Even though the world considers it ONE OF THE LAST SERIOUS SINS, they blaspheme Our Lord's holy Name left and right, but they don't even say "nigger" as part of a QUOTE.
That's how I am about blasphemy -- I won't use blasphemous phrases as quotes, lyrics, let alone from myself.
But God is my God! Do people literally worship black people? What the heck?
Obviously it could be a sin of contumely (in-your-face expressions of hatred against a person), hatred, inciting someone to anger, etc. -- but as conservatives often remind you, "That's already against the law".
You don't need a special "sin" for saying "nigger". Unless saying the phrase involves some OTHER EXISTING law, it's not a sin.
Negro = black
It was used as a term for black man.
It doesn't take much imagination to see how "negro" became "nigger" in common slang.
Oh, and might I remind you -- they refer to THEMSELVES with this word, the same way we call someone "dude" or "man". Like 5 times per minute.
So it can't bother them too much.
As for "latent multi-generational PTSD" -- their great-great-great-great-grandfather was called "nigger" as a term of hatred and derision on the plantation, and now it bothers them when they hear it -- just "get out of here". Not even worthy of a response.
Modern day blacks have no memory of being a slave, not even if they talked to their 110 year old grandfather. You have to realize how long ago 1865 was...
