Nah, just religionist :P

I think religion's a waste of space as well. What they can never admit is that science is the apotheosis of humanity, not some guy in a priest's attire reciting the same fairy tales over and over again.
Exactly, though discrimination on the grounds of religion seems to get mistaken for racism these days.
Only if you narrow things down to the point where you're clearly attacking just one or two religions.  Condemn all fundamentalist theism equally, and you can't go wrong.

And no, I'm not racist.  I think that humans of all colours are about equally stupid.  Like Calandale, I've been ripped off by my share of people with dark skin.  I've also been ripped off by trailer trash skinhead tweekers.  One was no better than the other.

I voted sometimes. Cognitively speaking, humans are prone to categorize things based on looks the the effect is only stronger when we look around at the people who share our space. I'm of the opinion, and I've seen this backed up with research, that everybody is a racist, on a certain level. The people who can consciously negate that effect are the people who are enlightened. Not the people who claim that bias doesn't exist.

I agree. I have the same kind of aversion to
good old southern boys, for the same reason.
But, it is a prejudice. Doesn't mean I can't see
beyond it.

As one of my friends pointed out, "I'm not
bigoted against demons, some of my best
friends are demons." :laugh:

Well, I THINK it's my opposition
to fat, and the thought (which may
be incorrect) that they tend towards
weight.

I'd probably have no problem with that.
And certainly have no objection to lapping
a Lapp.

Yeah, I can get along with fat people,
I just have an immediate negative reaction.
But, I'd like to try blubber.

I am prejudiced, but not racist.  There is a difference.  Do any of you actually believe one race is superior to another?

 ???

Webster's:
1  : a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race   
2  : racial prejudice or discrimination

How does being prejudiced not fit definition #2?

Since I don't know what is good and what is not,
this would be impossible. But, there are differences,
which is clear. Physical certainly, and it wouldn't be
too great a stretch to presume mentally, as well;
though, mind you, there is NO way of proving the
latter today.

In fact, since the closest that I come to a definition
of good is based upon aesthetics, looks alone are
indeed sufficient to make that judgment.  :laugh:

My actual prejudices have more to do with the societal
issues, than with the genetic. Is this racist? Probably not.
But, the effect is the same.
