If race is not sacred, why is racism wrong?
And that flows into sex, if sex is not sacred then homosexuality, promiscuity, adultery, is OK.
Racism is wrong because it's wrong to hate anyone. Racism is a kind of hate.

Still not getting how race is sacred.

Maybe someone can speak for Ravi, and tell me what definition of "sacred" is used to compare the sacredness of race and sex.
John 5:24
