T, my man, I defend his right to speak, and I also defend your right to speak up in objection to what he said. Pay attention, don't want you to miss this subtle point; What I reject is a conversation that goes beyond what was said, on to who Rev. Wright is, or what he has, and mostly surely the character assassinations of people who call him friend and minister. I am not fuzzy that many are so zealous to cast dispersions on Obama, the Church or anyone that isn't whistling Dixie; pot shots gone to far at liberation theology or what some call the Ole Time Religion, that was around since the Under Ground Railroad, that brought on change. The madness can spread from an individual to an entire group. You were fine on the topic of upstanding generations of Army men, until the mention they discriminated; righteously thinking some owed but discovered they paid a debt on the front lines and it was no mistake bullets were flying. P.S. Ever "seen" a segregated military cemetery?

How have you inferred that any members of my family discriminated? And please note that I have not mentioned any politics, or the matter of race other than to deny its significance, or addressed any other matter than a specific comment in the context of SCRIPTURE, not any theology. I remember the segregated South. I was the one who was ready to go to war with my parents and my whole town because my best friend and I could not go to first grade together. Racial prejudice makes no more sense to me now than it did when I was 6, and I mean that on the simplest and most fundamental level. Thr difference between myself and black Americans is exactly the same as the difference between me and brown-eyed Americans or blonde or Native Americans, SIMPLE GENETICS. Other differences between people are the ones that matter, they are learned and not a part of anyone's race.
