There is no black or white, no gray area.
Right is right and wrong is wrong..period!
Tell me;
What do you see
When you look at me?
Blue eyes, blond hair?
Pale skin, for they
Are all there
Or do you look within
Ask me what I think
What I believe
What I like
What makes me laugh
Or makes me cry
Or would you
just pass me by?
What do I see when
I look at you?
Not black or white
Nor brown or tan
I listen and try to understand
I want to know
What you stand for
For if you do not
Stand for something
You stand for nothing
For right has no color
Nor does wrong
Much like filthy lyrics
To a filthy song
There are not
Two sets of morals
Just right and wrong
A man is only
As pure as his heart
And that is something
He can never hide
For God knows the darkness
We have inside
It does not matter if we
Are black or white
Wrong is wrong
And right is right

You are correct, of course, but there are those who use guilt to get away with terrible wrongs.
THE WORD OF GOD SAYS, '...MAN LOOKS ON THE OUTER APPEARANCE BUT GOD SEES THE HEART...'. RACISM IS A 'PRIME TOOL' OF THE ENEMY AND SADLY MANY HAVE BEEN AFFECTED BY THE CRUELTY OF IT(IN GOVERNMENT AND OUT). 'BLIND' INDIVIDUALS WHO IGNORE OR ARE UNAWARE, OF THE LOVE OF GOD HAVE USED THIS TOOL TO 'DAMAGE' AND 'MAIM' SO MANY. THEY HARDLY REALIZE THAT IN THE END, WHEN WE ALL STAND BEFORE OUR GOD TO BE JUDGED, NOTHING WILL BE HIDDEN. AND WE WILL WITHOUT ANY 'EXCUSES' OR PHYSICAL IDENTITIES...ONLY OUR SOULS. OUR SOULS...WHICH WILL BE VOID OF FLESH AND WILL REVEAL ALL 'INCLINCATIONS' OF THE HEART, GOOD OR BAD...THAT WE CHOSE TO DO...RIGHT OR WRONG. THIS IS A FINE WORK...ENJOYED. THANKS FOR SHARING. LOVE, BLESSINGS & FAITH...
