(WRITTEN WEEKEND B4 HAROLD WASHINGTON WAS ELECTED MAYOR OF CHICAGO)
Strange, how sometimes the truth is stranger than fiction -
and how sometimes it takes thousands of years for
the real - FACTUAL - TRUTH - to supplant the
apparent "Horse sense" so-called """truth"""
Even a Horse can tell the difference between a WHITE man and a BLACK man -
- it's as obvious as day and night!!
But, perhaps MEN should have more sense than a HORSE!!!?!!!
The TRADITIONAL BELIEF is that men with a different color (than your own)
must be FUNDAMENTALLY quite different.
After all, if one of the most OBVIOUS things about them are so different
doesn't this imply that other things are, too??
Maybe ........................ Maybe NOT !
One must INVESTIGATE !
If one wants to know the T R U T H by logic.
THE DEVIL (SATAN, IF HE EXISTS)
or
the forces of Darkness (DEATH)
or of IGNORANCE !!!!!! O R O F G R E E D $$$$$$
have often in the past History of Humanity been able to EXPLOIT the
First logical thought above (that will occur to most everyone)
IF, more R E A S O N E D voices are NOT ALLOWED to be heard !
For, if humanity ONLY hears ONE SIDE of an issue, they will agree to what
SEEMS LOGICAL AT FIRST BLUSH, INTELLECTUALLY, y'know ?
Therefore, through the Ages - Evil spokesmen (& women) have been able to point to the "Simple, obvious Truth" that people of different color are separate kinds of people - even set apart by the Lord - "so as not to intermingle" -
(just blasphemous B.S. it would seem, to MY MIND) -
in other words - the "MORALITY OF GOD" is N O T
"AAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL G G O O D D's CHILDREN" -
but First, Second, Third ... etc. TYPES or RACES of his Children
does this make any sense? - since they are HIS CREATIONS ALL !!!
Everyone in the United States - and anywhere where there is even a PRETENSE
of LAW is familiar with the concept that I G N O R A N C E of the LAW
is NO EXCUSE for not obeying it ! It is one's DUTY - even to one's SELF
to LEARN and know Society's LAWS.
LIKEWISE if someone presumes themselves to be CIVILIZED,
EDUCATED or even HUMANE (much more so for Religiosity), they must
examine their BELIEFS against the FACTUAL KNOWLEDGE that
is available TODAY!
The Central FACT that puts the LIE to this RACIAL MYTH is a
FUNDAMENTAL GENETIC TRUTH , A SCIENTIFIC PROVEN ...............
1) The Human Organism is constructed form a blueprint
of around 30-40,000 GENES.
2) Color, or Pigmentation <Melanin count> is controlled
by about TEN (10) of these !!!!!!!
3) Therefore, a Human's Color is about 3 X 1/10,000 th's (Three Tenthousandth's)
of it's DESIGN (as a mechanistic biochemical TENT
{for Z SOUL, possibly}) i.e. 00.03% !!!!!
[Does this seem to be a "Statistically Significant" amount to you ???]
Now, there are certain other "RACIAL TRAITS" that, like all physical & biochemical traits are genetically controlled and occur in certain populations with high frequency -- -HOWEVER - the FACT is that ALL COMBINATIONS OF ALL TRAITS are found within the spectrum of the World's population. Also, the very fact that "Races" can interbreed - defies the very concept of "Race" as any fundamentally delineating definition!
(ie there is only ONE race; the HUMAN one.)
The full and final truth that bears most directly on this issue is the fact that humans are what they are more importantly because of the make - up/Design of their MINDS and the manner in which it has been Trained/Educated - which, because of the CULTURAL INFLUENCE in the final analysis probably results in American "BLACKS" & "WHITES" being more similar to each other than to either the European OR African Genetic-Cultural pools from which they sprang!
.....................................................................................................................................................
ADDENDUM
Considering man's greatest powers, in fact, those of reasoning and emoting -
- the tens of thousands of genes which control the makeup of the human brain (which includes the Neuro - transmitter Psycho - emotive factors) obviously play a far greater role in the innate essence of a person than those few which govern the tint of the covering overlaid on the skullcase.
Looking at the "hard - wiring" of our thought - apparatus, in fact - the neurons - physiology notes are gray, and so, to arrive at the "bare bone" fact - of - the - matter we are all more accurately that averaged shade - than any superficial appearance evolved for differential climatic solar uptake (to create Vitamin D & protect from melanoma) in sundry regions of our ancestors' existence.
As in most things - the substance of a person is not easily discernable from their image - for those who judge simply are easily deceived!
There is sometimes light in apparent darkness,
and oft - times darkness lurking behind blinding light.
Judge righteously, judge the whole truth,
as you would want someone to judge you!................................
