Racism
Other Contemporary Issues This AG Perspective reflects commonly held beliefs based on scripture which have been endorsed by the church's Commission on Doctrinal Purity and the Executive Presbytery. What is the Assemblies of God position on racism? The Assemblies of God recognizes biblical guidelines that (1) support certain universal rights for all people regardless of race, and (2) condemn prejudice toward any person because of race. We also recognize that racism (a belief in its basest form that one race is superior to another) continues to confront the church. The church calls to repentance any and all who have sinned against God by participating in racism through personal thought or action, through church and social structures, or through failure to address the evils of racism. The official position of the Assemblies of God concludes with an affirmative definitive stand against racism. "We pray for God to give us the courage to confront the sin of racism where it may be found in our lives, in our churches, in our society structure, and in our world." We must cooperate with the Holy Spirit in actively rooting out racism at home and abroad and seeking the reconciliation of men and women to God and to each other. This commitment of the Assemblies of God took practical form in 1994 when the Assemblies of God, along with other members of the predominately Caucasian Pentecostal Fellowship of North America disbanded and joined with Black Pentecostals in forming the Pentecostal/Charismatic Fellowship of North America.

To say that everything changed in America after 9/11 is neither a cliché nor hyperbole. The gruesome murder of thousands of ordinary citizens has left in its wake a profound sense of vulnerability that the world's most powerful superpower isn't used to.
For South Asians, it's been a more complicated tale.
Like mainstream Americans, they mourned the loss of many of their kin in the World Trade Center in New York, they worried whether the nation was secure, and they smarted from the economic jolt the attacks left.

For Illegal Immigrants, Some Aid Is Too Risky: Fears Abound as Government Warns Data Could Be Used for Deportation
washingtonpost.com
BATON ROUGE, La. The man who stood with his head bowed outside a cheap motel room here said his name is Almicar of Guatemala. He crept across the Mexican border into the United States a few years ago and since that time has found work as a painter in New Orleans.
But several weeks ago, Hurricane Katrina turned his world upside down along with everyone else's. Almicar, who gave only his first name for fear of being deported, said his situation is worse because he is an illegal immigrant. Since the storm hit, he has watched his neighbors at the motel call the Federal Emergency Management Agency to get money he will never see and food stamps that are forbidden to his family of five, and to seek jobs at the Social Security office, where he dares not show his face.

LONDON, England (Reuters) Veteran British television presenter Robert Kilroy-Silk has quit as host of a BBC morning chat show after 17 years following a row over anti-Arab comments he made in a newspaper article. "I believe this is the right moment to leave the programme and concentrate my energies in other directions," said 61-year-old Kilroy-Silk, a former member of parliament. The BBC had suspended his long-running "Kilroy" topical discussion show after the Sunday Express newspaper published an article by him headlined "We owe the Arabs nothing."

'Democratic' racism (1)
The State of Israel is both "democratic and Jewish", a first-ever Israeli constitution is set to declare. In a two-part article Jonathan Cook lays open a contradiction in terms An Israeli Knesset committee is currently formulating a constitution for Israel the first such attempt in its 56 years. The task was abandoned early in the state's history, after the country's founding fathers feared that giving a precise definition to the state's character would tear apart the fragile consensus between secular and religious Jews and that a Bill of Rights would enshrine in law rights it wanted to deny the Palestinians. Instead, the founding document of the state, the Declaration of Independence, made a promise: that Israel would "uphold the full social and political equality of all its citizens, without distinction of religion, race or sex". The Law, Justice and Constitution Committee is now holding regular sessions to establish a comprehensive set of Basic Laws which will comprise the constitution. The consensus among the Jewish committee members is that the preamble to the document will proclaim the state to be both "Jewish and democratic". The assumption is that an overwhelming majority of Knesset members will back such a constitution if it is put to a general vote of the parliament. The sole Arab committee member, Azmi Bishara, is not participating in the deliberations because he believes that such a formulation is nonsensical: the state cannot be both Jewish and democratic at the same time. Instead he is demanding that Israel become a state of all its citizens.

Dispensationalism and Racism
by Thomas Williamson What would you think of a religious sect that taught that there is one race that is by nature superior, and another race that is by nature inferior? And suppose that this sect taught that the superior race has a divine right to dispossess members of the inferior race and take their properties without compensation, and to ethnically cleanse those who resist this expropriation, using violence if necessary? And suppose that this sect believed so strongly in this system of racism and ethnic cleansing that it was willing to plunge the world into war in order to fulfill its objectives. And suppose that this sect claimed 70,000,000 adherents in the world's most powerful nation, and had a stranglehold on the foreign policy of that nation, so that the military and financial might of that nation was directed toward the goal of helping the superior race and suppressing the inferior race? Welcome to the wonderful world of American dispensationalism. Dispensationalists, who are found in many fundamentalist and evangelical denominations, follow the theological beliefs of John Nelson Darby, C. I. Scofield and Hal Lindsey, who taught that ethnic Jews constitute a superior race who are destined to take over Palestine, then the entire Middle East and finally the world. This naturally leads to a resentment of Palestinian Arabs, and all other Middle Eastern nations that sympathize with the Palestinians in their resistance to the program of pushing them out of their historic homelands. Dispensationalism, taken to its logical conclusion, leads to racism.

    Racism In America
    Written by: sentiencenerd There is surely no nation in the world that holds "racism" in greater horror than does the United States. Compared to other kinds of offenses, it is thought to be somehow more reprehensible. The press and public have become so used to tales of murder, rape, robbery, and arson, that any but the most spectacular crimes are shrugged off as part of the inevitable texture of American life. "Racism" is never shrugged off. For example, when a White Georgetown Law School student reported earlier this year that black students are not as qualified as White students, it set off a booming, national controversy about "racism." If the student had merely murdered someone he would have attracted far less attention and criticism. Racism is, indeed, the national obsession. Universities are on full alert for it, newspapers and politicians denounce it, churches preach against it, America is said to be racked with it, but just what is racism?

    BBC News, Tokyo
    Only about 1% of Japan's population is registered as foreign An independent investigator for the UN says racism in Japan is deep and profound, and the government does not recognise the depth of the problem.
    Doudou Diene, a UN special rapporteur on racism and xenophobia, was speaking at the end of a nine-day tour of the country. He said Japan should introduce new legislation to combat discrimination. Mr Diene travelled to several Japanese cities during his visit, meeting minority groups and touring slums.
    Japan mulls multicultural dawn
    He said that although the government helped to organise his visit, he felt many officials failed to recognise the seriousness of the racism and discrimination minorities suffered. He was also concerned that politicians used racist or nationalist themes, as he put it, to whip up popular emotions. He singled out the treatment of ethnic Koreans and Chinese and indigenous tribes.
