I am proud of my white heritage

I think it makes more sense to be proud of accomplishments and achievements. I suppose that if I'd done nothing worthwhile in my life, taking pride in my skin color might be a consolation, but it would not make me any less useless.

“I think it makes more sense to be proud of accomplishments and achievements”

I agree...but I do take some “pride” in the accomplishments of those that are the same race as myself...two come to mind; the light bulb since I like to see at night, and peanut butter (I love my peanut butter). This might confuse some people since one was invented by a person with light skin and one was invented by a person with dark skin. But both of them were part of the human race and as such are part of the same family (human family) that I belong to.

I pray that the day will come soon that we stop accepting the lie that there are different “races” and that we realize the truth that we are all related...God’s Word makes this clear, and science is now supporting this through the study of genetics...

I really like that statement Tax-chick, and I'm storing it into the old "memory bank" for later use.

Thank you! :~)
