So, if they created their own version of the bible or created their own religious document its okay. If they chose they could use parts of the Bibile to "justify" discrimination against black or mixed people especially if that was an integral part of their religious teaching. There are plenty of things in the Bible not explicitly stated that are considered sins. There are other things that are stated that are not considered sins. If they came up with such a rule it would not necessarily be clear that it is discrimination.

Yes. Yes. If there is no way to evaluate or measure it then why consider it?
