Racial Problems
Are Fundamentalists Anti-Black?
Fundamentalist Christians, of all races, are the greatest people in the world; however, we are not always right. (Now, that admission will amaze some people and anger others, but it still remains a fact.) One of our big failures is to address the race issue. Most of us evade it, hoping maybe it will go away. But it doesn’t go away.

What About Slavery And Payments to Blacks?
Slavery cannot be defended by the most brilliant, eloquent person even though many have tried. Aristotle said that “nature” gave stronger bodies and less under-standing to those born to serve while free men have less physical force and greater understanding. He also said that “just as some are by nature free, so there are by nature slaves, and for these latter the condition of slavery is both beneficial and just.” Aristotle was wrong! Slavery can never be justified.

Should Blacks Have Special Privileges? Part 1
There would be a scream to high heaven if I asked if there should be special privileges for Whites. No fair person would say that should be true. To be honest, white people have had it better and easier than people of color until recent years, and people of color have had to work harder and smarter to stay even with Whites.

Should Blacks Have Special Privileges? Part 2
My position has always been that minorities should have the same rights (and responsibilities) that I have. It is incredible that any fair-minded person, especially a Christian, would think otherwise. But, it works both ways: there should be no special treatment for any special group.
