ah yes, argumentum ad cultural relitivismus.

does this actually negate my point?

nevermind the fact that it is not actually true..

christanity, buddhism, sikhism, etc. among many, many, others do not have racism as part of their theological core doctrines. This is not to say that strands of any haven't misused the theology in the name of racism, but your claim is patently false.

Some strains of Judaism do have racism at the core. They believe they are chosen by God and there are many texts that support the idea that non-jews are lesser beings.

In any case what does it matter? What matters is how many people suffer and die at the behest of a religion, regardless if you can pinpoint racism or not.

so intent is irrelevant?

and misrepresentation by another group is not usurping the purpose of the original group?

or is nuance also irrelevant, so one should tar-and-feather everything because making distinctions is difficult?

I hear hackers are bad people, so who are you for using this site?
