But it don't surprise me in the least. I've heard that one going way back. My cradle religion, Southern Baptist, was born using the Bible against a group of people ; the blacks should be slaves, they claimed the Bible (God) said, and proved it.

And not long ago I got into it with a cousin, at a family get together, who claimed that the problem with America is that it's not following God's laws and commandments, because ... the blacks were/are under the curse of Ham, and we are ordered by God to keep them as slaves.

So I guess, I'm learning, another reason America is in trouble, for not practicing God's laws, is concerning the Ishmael "prophecy" ... delivered by God Himself.

I'm pressed to ask. Does the Bible support group-hate? Many have, and apparently still do, think so.

Not me. As far as I'm concerned, if the Bible supports group-hate, it's time to throw it into the trash bin.

So I'm not taking you serious bro Ohio. You're just pulling our legs. Thanks for the belly laugh.

Huh? Muslims are the descendants of Ham?

Have you read any posts, or just jump to your childhood conclusions?

So quibble but avoid the real subject, which was the Bible supporting group-hate.

Not at all. No group-hate, that is your imagination or misinterpretation, perhaps mis-reading things from your Southern Baptist roots. The Bible only warns us of what is a danger. The Bible instructs us to love God and our neighbor, even our enemy, yet we are still warned about all types of dangers.
