Whoever told you racism didn't exist in the ancient world did you a serious disservice.
You got some homework to do before you try to tell us all how it was back then.
The crusades where Christian campaigns T or f = T
They where after all non christian religions T or f = T
muslims enslaved christians and whoever and christians elslaved non christians . T or f= T
"some people where raised with(It) and they would automatically be afraid of or dislike what they didn't know" rite there i said racism existed already. =T
race was invented and pitched to the masses after there was already a holy war. modern racism is a permutation of original reaction , culture clash, and a direct decedent of organized religion. i didn't say racism didn't exist but thanks for the critica. wanna debate this?=) i know what i am talking about and i"m pretty centrist in my critical thinking. i can give you sources but not off the top of my head.
