About This Quote

We have come to love darkness of religion rather than striving to understand how the world is supposed to function. An example of this would be the apartheid system in South Africa. The people who were against this system didn't do so because they were against racism or bigotry, but they did so because they believed that the only way the world could work was if race was a choice. If you want race to be a choice, then you have to have a choice between being black or white. However, if there are no choices then one cannot be black or white.
