I think the Naacp has lost credibility by trying to play the race card in this. This man is the lowest form of scum there is. I'm sick of this whole cop's hate rich black people. If you have pride in your race your stupid.

You had me until the last line. What, exactly, is stupid about having pride in ones race? Black people should be proud to be black. I'm proud to be a white American of Scottish, Irish, and Italian descent. My wife is proud to be Chinese. What's wrong with pride in ones race? Everything else you said makes sense except that.

And by the way, sean, yeah, if your dad had half a clue about the Bible, he could've blown that document to smithereens. Hell, I've found flaws in every single item on that page so far. Shall I list them for you? Here's the first one: Adam and Eve didn't have to understand all the ins and outs of right and wrong in order to understand that they were being told "No". Think of God as a parent and Adam and Eve as his first two children. They really know nothing about the world other than what they see and are told. So, think of it from the point of view of an earthly parent. When you tell your child "No" and they do it anyway, does that mean that they didn't really disobey you and therefore didn't sin? Of course not! Just because they may not understand the immediate implications does not absolve them of the wrong doing.

That's just one item on that whole page. I could probably go on all night. I can't believe you had a Bible argument and used that to win. Some of the other items are even more laughable then that. Most every Christian with even a little knowledge knows that December 25th isn't the real birthday of Christ. What your document doesn't say is that it use to be celebrated in February or March (can't remember which) BEFORE it was moved to December 25th in an effort to get Pagans to convert. The Church makes no secret of that. I've even heard Priests outright say this in Church. It's simply used as a day to celebrate his birth, not the actual day of the birth.

That document is truly lame.
