59. Racism could fairly be called a belief system.
Edited on Mon Apr-27-09 01:47 AM by Occam Bandage
Moreover, many religions contain beliefs that are outright racist, and many more contain beliefs that are homophobic and misogynistic. You apparently think it is fine to contradict someone who claims white people are superior to black people. Is it fine to contradict someone who says, "God tells me men are superior to women?" Or is it nutty to disagree with him?
