If we were to wake up some morning and find that everyone was the same race, creed and color, we would find some other causes for prejudice by noon.
George Aiken
Prejudice. One of the most devastating sins. From it sprang the Civil War and the two World Wars. But where does prejudice come from? Pride. Plain and never simple pride. "I'm better than you because fill in the blank."
You know what I hate most about it though? Is that people base it on science.
People back in the 1880's did "scientific" studies that "proved" that black people weren't as smart and did better being slaves.
Under Hitler "scientist" proved that Jewish people weren't as human as because they smelled bad, caused trouble ect.
And people today try to prove "scientifically" that babies that haven't been born aren't human.
What a depraved world we live it.
Won't it be wonderful to get to heaven where there won't be even a hint of those things? We won't all be the same because part of the joy is being so totally different!
Imagine a lion and lamb. God doesn't say that he's going to change all the lambs to lions or vise versa he's going to allow them to be what they were meant to be but still get along.
We won't all be white, black, asian, have blue, brown, or black eyes.
We aren't going to be a bunch of clones.
We will all be so different, yet completely equal, and that's the beauty of it!
