On Interracial Marriage: The Moral Status of Miscegenation

Excerpt (it's rather lenghty, but the most well-thought out writing on the subject I've ever read):

Miscegenation, more commonly called interracial marriage, is one of the touchiest subjects about which one can speak today. There is widespread pressure, coming from both Christians and non-Christians alike, urging people towards the claimed goodness of racial diversity within marriage. For instance, John Piper contends that “interracial marriage is not only permitted by God but is a positive good in our day.”1 Similarly, secular humanist Paul Kurtz gives a more comprehensive and forthright affirmation of miscegenation when he states, “The highest good, as I see it, is intermarriage between people of different ethnicities, races, religions, and cultures.”2

Against views like these, it is rare to hear an opposing opinion today, and this is usually because any opposition to miscegenation — even saying merely that it is not a good idea — receives accusations of racism or, if the voice of opposition is a white person, white supremacy. Opposition to interracial marriage, especially if coming from a white person, is usually interpreted to entail hatred of other races. Allegedly, the only reason people would be opposed to marrying those of other races is because they have hatred or animosity for other races. It is because of this allegation that any opposition to miscegenation has been thoroughly and censoriously silenced. Despite such censoring — or perhaps, because of it — it is vital that we thoroughly understand the topic, rather than passively accepting anything with which our unbelieving culture and media might try to inculcate us.


Excerpt of the conclusion:

Miscegenation is unnatural and works against God’s purposes, especially when racial admixture occurs in large quantities. Therefore its default status is one of moral wrongness. In unordinary situations, the unnatural may be morally permissible, particularly when it is kept in small numbers (so as to not destroy the distinctiveness of a people or culture), but in ordinary situations, the default status of miscegenation cannot be overturned. We ought not to value the natural and the unnatural equally, and we also ought not to treat race as meaningless or insignificant.

I'll get flamed for saying so, but miscegenation is a tool of the left (along with abortion on demand) with which to commit racial genocide against whites.

When children are the product of these marriages, the offspring present as an intermingling of the individual physical ethnic characteristics of both parental races. Giving us a non-white homogeneous population with no individual physical distinguishing characteristics.

Look at some of the clothing catalogs and you will see models who are the product of interracial marriage. You can't tell what they are. But the one thing you can say with certainty is that they aren't white. Game set match.

Another phenomenon is the fact that invaders and border jumpers from South America and Mexico always marry within their own kind. You don't see illegals choosing partners outside their own ethnic group. They are too busy making anchor babies to worry about finding someone different from them to have children with.
