There's no such thing as a raciest..
The word is racist..
The word is racist..
Yes, in America today, you are a racist. Terms get redefined all the time. 'Gay' use to be a good term. Now it is a perverted term. They are presently changing the meaning of 'nationalist'. Nationalism use to be associated with patriotism. A good and right thing. Now it is being changed into extreme radicalism. As will be the word 'patriot'.

If you judge people based solely on their race then you're racist... Simple really..
I think sometimes the raciest people can be racist. 
Unfortunately to many, simply being white, and especially white male automatically makes one a racist. Add in Christian, conservative and then that racist is hyper-racist and must be exterminated.
There is racism in the world. But the term/word has been used to slander people without merit at times. If you (no matter the color of your skin nor you political ideology) hate or slander or threaten another person simply because of their race, religion or political standing, then yes in my book that would be racist. However, people seem to forget that we are allowed our freedom of speech, opinions, religion, etc and if you disagree with some, automatically they then throw out that term.
Hi Star
Im a conservative independent. I did not vote or either clinton or trump. but because Im not a democrat, nor a obama fan I was called a racist by a member of my church. This is despite the fact I have two mixed, half black, half white sons. Also have 3 sons have mexican, half white. Have a beloved granddaughter that also is 4th Korean, 4th mexican and half white. But I am a racist
Exactly. It is the doublespeak of 'Animal Farm.'
Liberals like Oprah loves to quote the Bible whenever it is convenient to her 'new age' theology, but she only offers half-truths (which are complete lies). She quotes, "And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth." but omits the second half of that verse.
"And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation" (Acts 17:26).
God is the One that established boundaries for the races. Man is only attempting to erase those boundaries in their quest for globalism, and a one world government.

It doesn't matter who you voted for as that is your constitutional right. If someone in your church called you a racist, you may want to consider finding another place of worship or you may want to point out scripture to that person showing them what Jesus said about not judging or condemning another Christian. You see, such comments and attitudes from church members is what keeps some people from attending anymore. I see more and more discrimination coming from church members/Christians than ever before.
A racist is a person who discriminates based on the colour of skin.
For example, if you are a white person and you hate someone who is African American because they are black, that is racist.
What if a black person hates a white person because they're a white person? Also, I don't care for the word "discriminate" as used in society. Leftism loves to change word meanings. Discrimination is a good thing.
I've only witnessed this once, and I'm in the Midwest.
What evidence do you have for this increasing in the church and from Christians???
What about a black person who hates someone who is white? Is that racism. What about a Mexican who hates someone because they are white, is that racism?
Why are 'black heritage' months and 'Mexican heritage' months and every other race's months seen as so 'cultural' and worth observing, yet have a 'white heritage' anything, and it is racist. It is a gathering of hate.

Racism is awful no matter who expresses it and no matter to whom/what it is expressed.
Just look at church attendance in America to date. As Christians, we are failing to live up to what is in God's Word towards God's people and most especially to those who are not of the faith.
How about blacks that hate other blacks because they aren't as dark as they are? Oh, and how about black liberals hatred of black conservatives?
Racism is here to stay . . . at least until Jesus comes and fixes this broken world.
Well, there is nothing in what you state that supports this statement "I see more and more discrimination coming from church members/Christians than ever before."
I do however agree with you concerning church attendance. There are many who "love" Jesus and hate his bride. No one who holds that attitude is born from above, they're self-deceived.
Then the arguments: "Can you prove from Scripture I have to go to church?" "I don't have to go to church to be saved." "All I have to do is believe and I'm going to heaven." "Everyone in church are hypocrites." "I can have church at home by myself." "Where two or three are gathered - that's church."
And this: Many on here do not even go to church, talking about those that have the availability. Some because of health, but then again, some of these show us pictures of them going to parks, places of entertainment, other venues. But health won't allow them to go to church. Then they get irate if you point that out "Can't sit on a pew!!!!" but they can sit on their duff just fine at home and bang their keyboard on a forum.
I call it bovine scatology.
I counter with the fact that declining attendance and especially among the young adults is a static. There may be different reasons for this decline for sure. However, the world has become so secular, the preached message has become watered down, we Christians do not always practice what we preach, all contribute towards the issue. Yes we Christians can as well be prejudice of our own accord. Satan is alive and well going about to see whom he can devour.
