I hope you're just playing devil's advocate because I know you're not that naïve.
We both clicked on the thread knowing it could get controversial. That's ok with me.
ETA: Here's how it works.
FOR MEN: White men can "date" anyone they choose as long as they don't bring the girls home. And, they can marry anyone but a Black woman without much trouble. A non-Caucasian woman will raise eyebrows but the *indiscretion* will be overlooked in time. Of course, the non-Caucasian woman will always be referred to as "that cute little [fill in "race"] (as in, "Where is Evan and the cute little Indian girl he married?")
FOR WOMEN: White women can "date" anyone they choose as long as they don't bring the boys home. And, they can marry only Caucasian men...period. If not, there will be trouble. And, if they marry a Black man, they'll likely be disowned.

Sorry, I am not from some corner of the universe that uses the bible to discredit interracial marriage. How you came to that conclusion is beyond me.
PS - That last part is rather moronic and completely idiotic. You are being an idiot.......and you are taking this whole discussion to a completely ridiculous level.
