I don't think interracial marriage is sinful per se. However, I think in most cases it is probably unwise and shouldn't be encouraged. And those who oppose it shouldn't automatically be denounced as 'hateful racists', because in many cases they aren't.

Hmmmm, 2/3 of me is thinking what an ignorant, racist, bigoted cunt, however:
Hanlon's Razor: "Never attribute to malice, that which can be adequately explained by stupidity. "
Sometimes I think racists are scared of there being no racism...
I've got to admit though, it was funny when this guy in evolution lecture asked why greek and chinese people can breed if they're different races -_- IDIOT!
wackadoodle, somehow I think if they could get their hands on them they'd be more eager to strip them of some other stuff first.
Weak, I know, but it had to be said.
I was working with a guy when a couple came in--a pretty white woman and a good-looking black man. After they left, my coworker turns to me and says, "I'm not racist, but does it ever bother me to see a hot girl like that wasted on a black guy."
See, the moral of the story is that he WAS racist, and you are too. Whee!
After all, Jesus said, "Love thy neighbor*"
*but not if they are a different race, religion,ethnic group, sexuality, or have any beliefs different from my own.
I don't think it's any of your business who other people choose to spend their lives with. To oppose "interracial" marriage is racist and is a hallmark of racist regimes whichever way you look at it, such as apartheid-era South Africa or Nazi-era Germany.
No doubt in many (if not most) societies it may lead to some problems, and again that is because of racism. There is simply no other word. And again, if two people of different "races" are willing to put up with these possible difficulties, what concern is it of yours?
It's one thing to say it's not a easy go for interracial couples and their mixed children may face adversity, but that's entirely because of racism.
And if you oppose it you ARE racist as it hasn't a thing to do with you, it's in no way YOUR decision especially as by "oppose it" you are implying there should be laws against it.
"I don't think interracial marriage is sinful per se."
- Yeah, that's real big of you.
"However, I think in most cases it is probably unwise and shouldn't be encouraged."
- And you base this assertion on what exactly?
"And those who oppose it shouldn't automatically be denounced as 'hateful racists',"
- What other kind of racism is there besides hateful racism?
"...because in many cases they aren't."
- Riiight
“And those who oppose it shouldn't automatically be denounced as 'hateful racists', because in many cases they aren't.”
Oh, fuck off.
My wife is a scifi nut, same as me. My wife puns, same as me. My wife is a Navy vet, same as me (we met in the chow line on a submarine tender). She’s been the Leading Petty Officer, same as me, and her policy of ‘call me, don’t worry about waking my spouse if you need me!’ is the same as mine.
She is the other half of my soul i didn’t know i was searching for.
And YOU would judge our marriage based on our non-identical races. How could that be anything but racist?
And you think it’s unwise BECAUSE of the races involved? How is it any of your business? How could it be anything other than hateful, thinking you know better than we do about appropriate relations between the two of us?
Fuck all the way down Fuck Off Lane, until you get to the Fucking Toll Booth, fuck THEM until you’re allowed to continue, then fuck off to the end.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
