Problems With Critical Race Theory Pt 1
This is the first of two essays discussing Critical Race Theory. This article discusses Delgado and Stefancic’s discussion on “nationalism,” followed by a brief discussion of “white privilege.”
Race Counseling in the Early Church
To employ the vocabulary of the modernists, the early church seemed to suffer from a classic case of xenophobia and privilege. Successful evangelical work on the part of the Church in and around Jerusalem had brought members from two diverse groups of distant brothers back into closer proximity than they had been for centuries and problems were bound to arise.
By the time of Acts chapter six, dissension had arisen between the Hellenists and the Hebraics. The accusation was favoritism.
Does Systemic Racism Exist?
The concept of systemic racism today has become underlined by a form of cultural relativism, a concept defined by perceptions, not proof. Under this new definition, black people—not God—are the authority on what constitutes as racism or systemic racism.
Racism and Rational Discourse
To attribute racism and discrimination to all of these unequal distributions is to assume the worst. Scripture, however, commands us to assume the best.
Racial Reconciliation’s Stumbling Block
Racial reconciliation can easily lead to racial manipulation. Joseph Conrad addresses this concern in a grand tale of a crew of shipmates at sea. Perhaps Conrad’s most important work exposes a difficulty that must be overcome in the pursuit of racial reconciliation.
