Just a little rant.

So I'm suppose to be writing a draft for my English class and I honestly did try, but while I was looking for articles to support my theory (yeah, it's a blasted research paper.) I came across this article. I was infuriated! How can people do that and feel okay about it?! Maybe I'm still touched by the movie that I watched last night for my culture class or maybe my intermsof culture teacher is finally getting to me, but still... this is RIDICULES! What gives someone the right to say "I don't want to go to school with you/sit by you because you're a different color"? In the movie I watched, the teacher uses the holocaust as an example of what this kind of hatred does. It's horrible! In the movie it says that the Nazis used "statistics" to prove that Jews and blacks are the lowest form of human. Ugh. This just makes me sick!

BUT......

It also makes me comforted to know that each person on this earth, despite race and color, is a child of God. It is incredible how every problem in life can lead back to the basic truths of the Gospel. How many other religions can do that? It always amazes me.
