What does the bible say about interracial marriages?

I've never met anyone that opposed interracial marriages for religious reasons.

However, doing a quick search yielded the following verses used to support the prohibition of interracial marriages...

Daniel 2:43 - And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.

Numbers 12:1 - And Miriam and Aaron spake against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had married: for he had married an Ethiopian woman.

Matthew 25:32 - And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth [his] sheep from the goats:

Others can be found, with some additional explanation here....

There's also sites like this which I hope are satirical, but can't find anything from a quick scan of the page that would negate it's support of the position it expounds.

Just for clarification: I am not attempting to speak for any christian or christian groups. I'm only putting forward the justifications that have been given to me by christians, or(in the case of inter-racial marriage) information that was located on a ~15-20 second google search.

They were more focused on inter-religious marriages, rather than race itself. It just so happened that religions were so race-specific at the time.

At which time? The time the bible was written, the 1950s/1960s, both?

If I worked for a PD that would require me to release child molesters, I think I'd be out of there in a hot minute.

And gays basically are child molesters

And gays basically are child molesters

wut?

[Craizie]

wut?

I had someone try to throw some crazy stat about this shit. They said something crazy like 70% of child molesters are gay, so therefor 70% of gays are child molesters.

It was so dumb that I just " uh huh'd " him until he walked away.

I'm just trying to figure out if justin fucking a dude makes him a child molester, or knocking up 9 year old Ashley's smooth hole makes him a gay. . . .

At the end of the day she is a moralistic piece of shit.

If you are Christian you shouldn't follow anything in the old testaments.

With that said, Jesus was Lucifer's greatest trick.

Christians just like pretending that marriage wasn't around before christianity existed.

I'm trying to figure out if your figurative butthurt is so strong that it transmorphs into literal butthurt, and that makes you gay.




No but anyway. Look at it like this. They're related. They're like cousins or something. A molester, likes dudes. Its just the dudes he likes, aren't of legal age.

A lot of you guys can be trolled pretty hard by bashing gays. It makes you wonder...

I think my favorite verse (not listed in likeitfast55's post) has to be from Deuteronomy 25:11

11 When two men are fighting and the wife of one intervenes to save her husband from the blows of his opponent, if she stretches out her hand and seizes the latter by his genitals, 12 you shall chop off her hand; show no pity.

Never mind the excessive punishment for a minute, but at what time or in what culture was stopping a fight by grabbing testicles such a problem that it needed a solution?
