But... to answer your question....Dunno... you would have to ask some of the people that I have seen who find these comments offensive.

The comment only exists because of racial stereotyping.

But... as it is clear that the concensus holds that I am totally wrong I will digress.
D4T, MissBratt meant nothing offensive AND YOU KNOW IT!

Thad is like an old friend I had as a teenager. He would be black if he had a choice! He loves black gospel music, and plays the organ black gospel style. He loves the worship style found in many black churches. In fact, I believe his church is 70% black and now has a black pastor!

I'm in the south and our church is about 65% black now. We used to be predominately white and the black people in our town would give our black people a hard time for going to a church that was predominately white. We have a black and white couple in our church. They are loved just as much as anyone else.

I prefer that my son marry someone white though. There is a culture difference between all races.

Is there a culture difference between the Northeast and South ... or the West coast and the Midwest ??? I pray my daughter finds a good man ... who loves God above all and will treat her like Christ loves the church.

You sound like a good father, Dan.
