Reading the bible: please help!

More like The Grand Wizard at a cross burning. He abhors miscegeny in any form. He doesn't think it can ever work, and maintains that it will ruin the chosen race in the attempt.

That's not much of a riddle.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

WTF?  Someone please explain Dunno

Deuteronomy 23:1

No problem.  That's a cautionary analogy about the divine master race working and mixing with the enemy.  It's expressed another (and more comprehensible) way in corinthians, 

Quote:Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership can righteousness have with wickedness? Or what fellowship does light have with darkness?

Heretic! My literal reading is more valid than your allegorical one.

The latter verse -is- a literal reading of the allegorical content. These are calls to racial purity in a supremacist culture. They're not even supposed to let their cattle fuck the lesser races cattle.

Scriptural ignorance isn't a problem anymore.

  You need help alright but I'm afraid it's not the kind that the Christians here can give you.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

Uh-huh.  G-C is so fucked up that he can make all sorts of absurd excuses for his fucking holy horseshit.  He should be a muslim.  They have a lot in common.
