Ok so they were discussing this on another message board that I go on, and I got flamed pretty badly for saying stuff about Ham. First of all I was told that Ham wasn't cursed at all, it was Caanan, and second off I was told that I had been listening to a bunch of southern Americans that are racist and belong in the KKK. Now I don't want to offend anyone but what is the big deal? I have an understanding about some kind of war between the north and the south and whatever and that it had to do with black people but what in the world was it really about? I have been told that it is only people in the south who say Ham was cursed and stuff and whatever. Please help here first of all I think I see in the Bible that you are right and second of all I have an appaling lack of knowledge of American history!

These morons should be required to interbreed with pigs. The children of such a union could only be better human beings than if they breed with one another.The Cornerstone Speech , by CSA vice president Alexander Stephens, right now. Start at paragraph 9.
I read the whole thread and it was appallingly racist.
I want to beat her til she is a reddish pulp for being so flagrantly stupid.
So,let me clarify this. Canaan was a region, and as far as I am concerned, Noah has three kids, Sem, Cam and Haphet. So, get some knowledge of your own Bible. Get American history straight, you. When slavery was over and there was a possibility of accepting black people in the church life, racists kept on being so and shunning them because it was justified in the Bible, where?, in the part where they say that Cam(or Ham, depending again on translation), from whom the blacks descend, according always to them, of course, was the son cursed by Noah. Racist exist in the South. That you haven´t found a biblically solution for that, and you don´t want to, it´s your business.
"... I have an understanding about some kind of war between the north and the south and whatever ... I have an appaling lack of knowledge of American history!"
Ok, there's nothing wrong about not knowing very much about a subject. However, when you don't know much, don't construct an argument based on semi-factlets that you think you know but aren't too sure. Ask some goddamn questions about history if your so ignorant, don't make shit up.
Actually, this is encouraging. Katyanne has been exposed to the rest of the world and is finding out that using the Bible to justify hating black people is a load of racist crap that came mainly out of the US south, and that maybe she should start questioning stuff. Hopefully, she'll learn something from the experience.
Their profound lack of knowledge about important world history is, quite frankly, upsetting.
Holy hell, you do have an appalling lack of knowledge of American history. Public school! Kindergarten! Now!

Nah the Civil War wasn't about slavery, it was about State's Rights. Of course the first state's right was the right to have slaves. But then the second state right was the right to ...track slaves across borders into non-slave states to recover property(slaves). And course the third states right was the right to sell your slaves to other slaveholders. Yep, not really about slavery at all.PS Randy's case about taxes and tariffs causing the war would have been reasonable... had the war been fought in 1832.
You know, I know this one's far into the fundy swamp, but is there any way to find her address and anonymously ship her a copy of "Don't Know Much About History" or "People's History of the United States"? She could really use it.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
