I fail to see what beliefs could infer that. Sorry, I may have worded it wrong, and in the process made a rather broad statement. I just mean that if anyone doesn't want to date a person outside of their race BECAUSE they're outside of their race (i.e. due to racist opinions) that is wrong. Otherwise, it is just personal opinion on what attracts you.

I say that simply by looking at the Bible and how it refers to different peoples constantly is evidence that God didn't intend for many interracial relationships. But, then there is also proof in Deuteronomy 7 verse 3-4: "3 Do not intermarry with them. Do not give your daughters to their sons or take their daughters for your sons, 4 for they will turn your sons away from following me to serve other gods, and the LORD's anger will burn against you and will quickly destroy you." Now this comes on the heals of the 10 commandments in Deuteronomy 5 (10 commandments is in Exodus also), so I don't see how I could be wrong. There's also other clear proof such as the destruction of the tower of babel.

1. Thats no fact, and thats not proof.

2. It's talking about people of other religions.

As a true believer, I believe that it is based in fact. On your second point, It is reffering to poeples of different religions, and ALSO of different cultures and races.

I don't see how it is at all.."..will turn your sons away from following me to serve other gods.."

No culture or race involved at all..Different religion. So your theory is that every race should only marry their race?

No you have it wrong. The"will turn your sons away" part is the WHY not the WHO. The who is the people of the different race. Yes, my belief is that poeple should only marry thier own race.

But do you actually have a problem with interracial couples, or do you just not date other races?

What is outside your race in this day and age? 90% of the world is made up of mutts anyways...you will almost always date outside your "race"...even if you are 100% something, odds are the other person is not

It's aesthetics. Sure, a person could have African-American origins, but his skin is white; therefore, I'm more attracted to him than someone with black skin. It's not a race issue; it's an aesthetics issue.

This is the most logical answer given then...everyone has things that they are/are not attracted to aesthetically...which it normal and understandable...I just don't see how some posters exclude based on race (not looks and/or personality)

I don't know what he's implying, but if I were asking the same things he was then I'd be implying that your belief in this matter is ludicrous.

When I was still single, I dated someone of a different race. She was African-American and I am Caucasian. It didn't bother me then and still wouldn't bother me.

I personally would date someone of any race; I've been attracted to people of pretty much every race I know and it's completely normal socially too. To be honest I've never really thought about it. I fully respect that some people might not find other races or certain races attractive though; just as some people have preferences for short/tall people, hair colours, and personalities. I don't agree with people who believe that there is something 'wrong' with dating/marrying/having kids with other races though.
