Am I a racist?
I hate NASCAR, Indy, Drag Racing. Even that thing they have on bicycles in France every year!

I do like football and golf. Are those redeeming qualities?

5. Well, it sounds like you hate Indyans and what must be transvestites doing a 100M dash?
:yoiks:


Okay, in seriousness I cannot fathom, infer, or conjecture any attributable racist qualities in your sporting dislikes.

7. Do you 'hate' that stuff ?
of simply 'don't prefer' them ?

I reserve hatred for the most extreme circumstances .... it seems frivolous to waste 'hatred' on car races ....

13. You Hate Drag Racing?
To each his or her own, I suppose.

But somehow, I enjoy seeing Lipsynka and Tiffany Aregas run against each other.

14. St. Paul always liked a good race
1 Corinthians 9:24: Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize.

1 Corinthians 9:26: Therefore I do not run like a man running aimlessly; I do not fight like a man beating the air.

Philippians 2:16: as you hold out the word of life—in order that I may boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor for nothing.

Hebrews 12:1: Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.
