The Devil In White

in racism •  7 years ago 

In Africa & the rest of the World there are notions that are strongly held onto like a man would a lifeguard while drowning in a pool. Those archaic notions can sometimes be the reason we tend to miss out on a lot here on earth and probably beyond. Doctrines are dangerous especially if the are founded based on superstition or mere folklore. For example, we all grew up believing black is symbolic with evil & death while white symbolizes holiness, peace etc. So if God where to walk up to us in all black we may believe He is the devil and if Lucifer came in all white we may believe He is God. So there lies the fault with color designation, a problem that is the sole identifier behind racism. Using that analogy is it safe to say black people are all devilish and whites are from heaven?

I have always wondered systematically who poisoned our minds and how did we buy into the idea, was it the traditional institution, the Mosques or the Church's? From as far back as kindergarten the color wheel started to fill our subconscious with color designation all up till highschool. We bought into the idea "hook line and sinker". To a racist a white or black car looks super cool but a white or black person is an enemy and sensed as inferior.

Away from color, today the tide has shifted into religion, suddenly we now identify anyone Islamic as a terrorist and anyone of Christian faith as the good guys, on the flip side anyone of Christian faith is an infidel and anyone who embraces Islam is of the "true religion". I must say we need not be reminded the damage this poison is bringing "humanity". To anyone with a functional brain, God isn't of any religion or color, We are diverse in our beliefs but still we are his creation, His children. God never created or intended creating one race. You think he didn't put geography and climate into consideration in respect to racial evolution? I mean the Alpha & Omega didn't see that coming? You'd have to be dumb to believe otherwise.

The World needs to be properly enlightened especially the far corners of planet earth where civilization is still catching up. I'v heard of people who don't eat healthy all their lives suffer a heart attack and people say it's some spiritual attack like duhhhhhh! read up on your health journal and catch up, even our religious books pointed out how healthy herbs (plants) are, and how much eating right has to do with a long and healthy life. There ain't no voodoo priest trying to kill your obese self with a 2nd heart attack, since you already gave a testimony after the first and went back to your unhealthy lifestyle choices.

Well you get the picture and I hope you get the message. It's time to make some drastic changes to our perception of things in general. Thumbs up if you've chosen to be wiser than a jackass and well if you haven't and still choose to stick to your caveman mentality, well thumbs up too.
