Welcome to GC. I'm not sure why whites send you gifts and I'm not sure why blacks don't. I do know some support the war and others don't. I don't support the war and it has nothing to do with being black or white. In addition, if we were friends, I too would send you a care package just like the white folk.

Greetings,
I am new to posting on this site. Ihave reading it for a while. This thread struck my interest so much, I decided to chime in.
I have often wondered about strong Christians black and white and ho their views are close to that of conservatives. Now, its funny, when people talk about conservatives, others immediately assume Republicans. I am a conservative Democrat. I am a christian and because of that I cannot accept the gay lifestyle. I also believe in personal responsibilty.
Heres a question? Sundaymornings at 11 am. The most seperated time in America. White christians go to white churches. Black Christians go to Black Churches. Both groups claim to love God and all humanity yet seperate themselves. I never understood this. I guess people worship where they feel comfortable. I am in the military and we worship together and its all good.
Also when it comes to politics. Its interesting. When I deployed to Iraq last year, all my white christian firneds were telling me they would pray for me, send me whatever I wanted and thanked me for my service. All my blackchristian friends said they would pray that I didnt have to go, or that Bush would get kicked out of office. Very different responces. I am currently over here in Iraq. My white friends send me personal supplies andletters. A school has adopted me and send me letters. My black friends. Nothing.
