Good research of wt material!
I am not sure about the bible not being racist.
"I(Jesus)was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel." (Matthew 15:24)
Deut. 7:3-4: “You shall not intermarry with them, neither giving your daughters to their sons nor taking their daughters for your sons. For they would turn your sons from following me to serving other gods, and then the wrath of the Lord would flare up against you and quickly destroy you.”
This sounds like cultural discrimination to me.
I also find it disturbing how the Israelites were to slaughter the other races when they entered the promised land.
The Israelites took slaves, did they not?
Nevertheless, I like the video. -

freetosee, I see those scriptures a little differently than you. But we are all entitled to our opinion. Thanks again :)

Personally I would prefer an introduction something like, "jw/wts claims not to be racist by following the bibles/jesus example... " But for those who believe in the bible it is just right.
I like the way you present the scriptures and wt quotes without being judgemental or aggressive. It is easy to follow and your voice sounds pleasant. -
