The segment of "christians" you are refering too, also don't like to take care of their neighbour... unless that neighbour is like them. They have cultural roots in movements that used christianity to justify racism... never forget what the argument in the confederate south came down too:
These people also go through life, thinking that they are "good people"... you know, by default. This liberates them from ever doing self-reflection and self-criticism. And they had a lot of power, and still do.
... I mean... Why would they not fall for a poppulist movement that pampers to their xenophobia, white-supremacy, christian herritage and tells them that they are "good people". A movement that is unwilling to do self-reflection, and constantly blames all of their issues on abstract concepts that serve as scapegoats? A movement that is telling them that their power will be restored, because it's constantly revelling in nostalgia of a romantic past. This movement was pretty much made to catch them all.
They [those in favor of abolishing slavery] were attempting to make things equal which the Creator had made unequal.

@Kwek00 Ill' tell you what : If a situation ever occurs where a group of Caucasian illegal immigrants ever find their way into the U.S ,and the same group of citizens who were opposed to the non - whites embrace the new group with open arms ,then I will give your theory consideration .Untill then......

@Kwek00 It should be obvious ; I will let you figure it out for yourself .Not that it should be hard ........

@DavidT8899 No... just spell it out for me, so I know exactly what the issue is and I don't have to misrepresent you.

@Kwek00 No offense,but at your age I shouldn't have to " spell it out for you." I'm sorry ; you'll have to figure it out for yourself.
