Your post was good until you said - "There are more important things than our race though."
You should study the original meaning of the 7th Commandment. Go to the Latin and Greek for its original meaning. The memory of every race is inscribed in the cells themselves. One of which is the genetic code sustaining 'optimal balance' of health. Adulteration causes a genetic imbalance called microchimerism. This is part of the Creator's design for preserving each kind.
Go to the Latin and Greek for its original meaning.
A few observations:
The original language in this case is Hebrew, not Latin or Greek.
When a person directs you to look at the original language with regards to scripture, it is often a warning-sign that they are about to torture scripture to fit their particular world-view.
While the God of the Israelites discouraged his people from intermarrying with other people groups, it is obvious from scripture that this was not because of any supposed health effects. Scripture makes it absolutely clear that the concern was that by intermarrying, the young men of Israel would be led into idolatry.
In this case adultery means just that - having sex outside of marriage or a covenant relationship.
Dude, you need to look the following up. The oldest Bible is the Greek Septuagint, which was written in Greek in circa 250 BC. The chronological order goes like this: Paleo-Hebrew is translated in to Greek in 250 BC (All Paleo-Hebrew versions are lost.) The Greek is converted into Latin. The Greek and Latin are used to create a Neo-Hebrew versaion.
Koine Greek was the world language throughout the Levant and Egypt even up to the Roman influence. The Greek influence was widespread throughout the region. The Greeks called this area Idumea, which means the Land of Edom. This should give you a clue as to whom the spoils of conquest went to. The Edomites were allied with Nebuchadnezzar and indeed received the vacated land after the Israelites were conquered and carried off into captivity. The influence of the Greeks was so pervasive that speaking Greek was the 'international' language of choice. The original Israelite written language was called paleo-Hebrew and had no vowel points. The written language was composed of consonants and depended on the oral knowledge of the scribes to interpret and pass down the writings. The scribes feared that the meaning of the writings would be lost, so the scribes met in Alexandria to preserve the texts in the Greek language. The result of this effort was the Septuagint. It was a prescient decision they made for preserving the Writings in Greek because all paleo-Hebrew versions are lost in antiquity. There are no surviving paleo-Hebrew bibles.
The "Hebrew" you are referring to was created by the phariseeic Masoretes in 900 AD. The Masoretes used the Greek Septuagint and the Latin Vulgate to translate it into a newly invented written language called Neo-Hebrew. All protestant bibles use the Masoretic writings. The Catholics incorporated it in their bibles as well.
You didn't even give an effort to look up the original meaning of the 7th Commandment. If you had you would have found the truth. The Greek "moich' and Latin 'adultera' do not have the modern meaning. From scripture it most certainly was because of deleterious genetic imbalance due to microchimerism. In addition, to 'Gillul' and widespread idolatry, are mamzers. Notwithstanding, the Creator maintains each after its kind through his immutable laws of Nature.
I understand and I have thought about this. I do not deny it, but I do not put it at the top of the list of most important things to focus on right now.
For me personally, there is so much work to be done to improve. Though I have no right to judge, I’d guess the same goes for many others as well. I just don’t want everybody riled up with hate and vengeance when that’s not what we need at this very moment.
If whiteness isn't important, why are (((they))) attacking it like it's the world's greatest enemy?
Cause God likes us more than them...
