The world is gray, nothing is ever so definite as to define things as black and white, evil and good respectively. The only things that one needs is foresight and perspective to understand how good or how evil things are. If good is measured by benefit and bad is measured by destruction, than you have to consider the long term affects of both.
Say for instance, we didn't pay taxes. Than, we'd have more money! But, we'd face a serious economic downturn when our government fails... If we fight terrorists, than no one would attack us! But, than we'd face how we made them martyrs and probably attracted more to their cause... If we steal money, we get more money! But, once we get caught, we lose everything... If we do what we want, we do what we want! But, no one would live after a year, because no one would farm... One day I hope that prejudices would leave the world, for if that happens, we would all benefit.
Stop predisposition, not everyone is the same depending on how they are associated. People do not inherently posses sin. Your race, your orientation, your friends and your economic position don't decide you as a person, so don't bring people who are different down. I won't name specific stereotypes or general racism to justify this common hate. I know people from each category that after knowing them, I know none of the stereotypes are true.
This may just sound like a repeat of what's been beat into your head previously, but it's important not for what you're always told, you know, the general, "They're just like you!" is incorrect. Their differences is what makes them interesting. Good friends and couples are molded from complete opposites of personalities and ideas. Opposing forces attract and i think it goes without saying that everyone has a crush for the exotic girl or guy.
