The BEST post of the thread!
Your definition of racism tweaked some thoughts. I gather that your definition recognizes/acknowledges that there are different races. However, looking further it is in the belief that one race is superior( by whatever criterion?) that carries forward to a ‘racist’ doctrine. I tend to believe that races develops into or are cultures. It is with the development of cultures that people become apart/different than others.I believe there are different cultures and sometimes trying to mix/blend them as in Johnson’s ‘Great Society’ or Bush’s ‘New World Order’ we create a ‘Tower of Babel’ which the Bible tells us such doesn’t work out. There are different races along with different cultures.It is best to recognize such for harmonious conditions. Having said all this I don’t see any avoidance of the likes of a Hitler, or of a Stalin, or of a MAO, or of a Mohammed or of any such person.
