An episode on a show depicted the finding of remains of a family group that killed, the person that had instigated this had also lost their life in the process. This was a find that reaches way back in time as it was determined that the female that was killed was homosapien and the male was neanderthal and they had a daughter. The other person in the mix was homosapien.
As near as can be determined from the evidence presented it was a hate crime. It is known through dna testing that there are people today that still carry both genes into their makeup, so this was not a one of crossing of species, but you have to wonder how many more of those ended in a similar way.
So today we are still seeing hate crimes because of racial bias. Add to that are the additional excuses of religion, lifestyle and even how we choose to see how life should be lived. We know for a fact in this country when slavery was in practice that it was common for slave owners to impregnate slave women. What better way to increase your slave population. The children were very seldom looked upon as anything but slaves.
The persons held in slavery once freed were still characterized as lesser persons. They are not white so that makes them lesser. Then because of a need for labor to build the railroads people from China came to the west coast. Even though they were not slaves they were considered lesser, again because they are not white. The native population also had this brand placed upon them.
We as a nation, have people that have come here from all over the world and many suffer that same fate because of the idea of some that if they are not white they are lesser. On top of that we have a political party that has, in addition to their disdain for all that are not white have decided that they must also subjugate women.
One of their top runners in the coming election has stated that if you are not producing children that you do not have a viable interest in the nation. Then the party of all things better than anyone else, denies access to in vitro fertilization. Does this make sense?
The other observation on this attitude is that if we were not supposed to cross pollinate why was the ability to do so built in? Populations that have been isolated either by circumstance or by design, such as royal families, tend to end up having some physical or mental health problems that come from inbreeding.
On that basis alone it may well be that ultimately we may need to have the cross pollination practice taking place. We are all supposed to have a common ancestor way back when and if that is true what was the cause of all the differences? Also do we know for certain which skin tone that ancestry had or how all the others came about. These are things to consider when the idea to denigrate others for a racial difference is brought up.
As to lifestyle choices this is a matter that is a personal choice and needs to remain just that. If it does not affect you in any other way than to say, that is not for me, then mind your own business and move on. No one told you who to love so don’t tell others who they should or shouldn’t love.
