@Jojiswims I know what you're trying to say, but I believe that extremes beget extremes, and you're entertaining the other extreme even if you don't see it that way.
Unfortunately (or fortunately), St Paul and other letter writers didn't address societal problems in great detail. This means there is a lot of room for divergent beliefs amongst the common cause of Christ, and I have no problem with that of course -- but that's a two way street.
You share,
"There is no longer Jew or Greek; there is no longer slave or free; there is no longer male and female, for all of you are one in Christ Jesus." Galatian 3:28
But, he says elsewhere:
"...act like men, be strong..." 1 Corinthians 16:13
"Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him? But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering. But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God." 1 Corinthians 11:14-16
"Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear, and with sincerity of heart, just as you would obey Christ. Obey them not only to win their favor when their eye is on you, but like slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from your heart." Ephesians 6:5
Plain contextualization would infer, as so by all serious scholars, that the Bible teaches us to ascribe to some unscientific albeit "natural" sexual and hierarchical norms that are apparently obvious. This seems to be the final Word of the Lord on the matter, until we enter heaven, where another hierarchy rules, that of Love -- "There is neither Jew nor Greek...".
All serious scholars acknowledge that Galatians 3:28 is speaking to the Spiritual realm. Don't dismiss or constrain a woman's gift from God to the church (such as the female Apostle listed in the new testament -- I even listen to female Preachers), don't keep someone of another race from offering something to advance the kingdom, etc. And, most of all, we are to view people of all stripe and flavor, with utmost regard as the Body of Jesus, even if we may have more power over them in a certain context.
"avoid stupid controversies, genealogies, dissensions, and quarrels about the law, for they are unprofitable and worthless." Titus 3:9
"... not to occupy themselves with myths and endless genealogies that promote speculations rather than the divine training that is known by faith. But the aim of such instruction is love that comes from a pure heart, a good conscience, and sincere faith. Some people have deviated from these and turned to meaningless talk, desiring to be teachers of the law without understanding either what they are saying or the things about which they make assertions." 1 Timothy 1:4
"whoever hates a brother or sister is in the darkness, walks in the darkness, and does not know the way to go, because the darkness has brought on blindness." 1 John 2:11
"I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.” John 13:34-35
You would have to convince your detractors that caring about the existence of their ethnicities/races, is a stupid controversy or genealogy (which was a preoccupation to find and ascribe spiritual advantage in Hebrew culture at the time), or convince them that they aren't loving a race, to desire to see their own flourish.
God himself wants every tribe and tongue to glorify him, not just English speaking Beige people from the final frontier of total and complete assimilation of every human variable:
"After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands..." Revelation 7:9
How you are stepping into extreme:
Clearly, the guy posting pro-Euro pics and memes who started this thread, is advancing what some aptly describe as "esoteric shitlerism," unfortunately combining the whites who love their race, with antagonism of other races. The infowars really write themselves...
This instantly puts a good thing under the heal with the prevailing narrative already overrepresented by every information sharing widget that makes it into mainstream audience viewing: whites who seek to preserve their races are evil nazis who want to enslave everyone they don't murder rape in gas chambers.
The truth is, the prevailing narrative, is very extreme. It's the very function by which whites are throwing away their culture, and love for self, to the point they Will go extinct if they don't make radical procreative choices in the next right now years.
So, your milquetoast love is love message, is pandering to a necessitated interracial marriage and procreation, if whites are to display their brotherly love of other races, and that is patently false. You should talk to Far Eastern indigenous peoples about these subjects some time -- you may be shocked by what you find. They consider it absolutely laughable for any race to position themselves for extinction, and consider it tragedy for whites to be doing so. The fact is, the 11th commandment, "if ye love me, intermarry my race" pounded into our brains from infancy, is a product of post-WW2 counter nazi propaganda, by our own CIA. That is not written anywhere in scripture.
NOTE: I am not saying it's wrong for people who have interracially married to do so, I'm saying that contra-beliefs and efforts to preserve one's race is not wrong, but can be good -- good or bad entirely built on the culture you're raised in, not intrinsic.
PS: your first pic expositing a beautiful black lady, was a black porn star, lol
PPS: I have no problem with all the races loving their own, and think pictures of their best and brightest, would be a great addition to an Aesthetics Dump!
