Did a Florida Judge Give Vastly Different Sentences to Two Men, Whose Only Difference Was Their Race? | Snopes.com<\/a> — The concern I have is why did not the formula for calculating the “sentence points” consider all those supposedly different factors that supposedly led to the difference final sentencing based on the Prosecuting Attorney and Judge’s subjective considerations.\u00a0 The non-inclusion of such factors in the sentencing point formula suggest they should not carry any heavy weight in sentencing a person.\u00a0 — Even I who is intentionally one of the most impartial persons alive regarding racial matters just got to wonder about this case and the system at large even in these modern times.

Author argues for the value of being ‘antiracist’<\/a> – If you listen to the whole thing and then to Morning Joe question at about the 8:10 mark and Casey Gerald response I think his response was not complete enough to answer the question. I took Morning Joe question as more of an acknowledgement that 8th grade history book was negligent in not telling all that stuff that had been stated earlier by the two black men. Certainly academic books should fully disclose the complete history and do so without imposing guilt on children and adults alive today while exhorting us all to be anti-racist no matter the color of skin we come dressed up in.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Statement On Social Justice and the Gospel<\/a> – I find this good and biblical except for Items VIII and XIV entitled “The Church” and “Racism”, respectively for these are malformed and misinformed with respect to the integration (integral participation) with society so as to influence political\/social justice for the gospel includes both getting saved and living the saved life and influential participation in society is an important element of living the saved life.<\/p>\n

In VIII the first denial statement should be changed to read as follows:
WE DENY that political or social activism should be viewed as primary to the mission of the church; yet, we also DENY that such activities are not an integral component of the gospel for the gospel is about both getting saved and living saved. Believers can and should utilize all lawful means that God has providentially established to have some effect on the laws of a society for such is evidence of saving faith and constitutes a non-primary but secondary central part of the church\u2019s mission given to her by Jesus Christ, her head. We deny that laws or regulations possess any inherent power to change sinful hearts.<\/p>\n

In XIV the last sentence should be deleted and the period ending the next to last should be replaced with an semicolon and the following inserted: yet, we emphatically deny that the preaching\/teaching against racism and social injustice is not inportant in our churches as exemplified by Jesus teaching on loving thy neighbor (Matthew 22:34-40) and James 2 preaching\/teaching against partiality.<\/p>\n
