Beaner?

Last night I was channel surfing a bit, (I usually watch a couple of shows at a time) I came across a Mexican comedian who called himself a "Beaner". That alone made me chuckle but the next thing he said almost made me fall on the floor. He said he was going to drive a NASCAR and have his sponsor be "Spic and Span"! He went on to say that black drivers should have "Churches Chicken" be their sponsors and white people should have "Salteen Crackers" be theirs. In a time when people are complaining about the different races up rises a man who make us laugh at them. Praise God! Why shouldn't we focus on things that put a smile on our face instead of the things that make us frown? No we shouldn't talk derogatory or put people down for any reason, especially their race but we can find laughter in truth. And laughter is good medicine according to Gods word. Just when I had to deal with the race issue in my own church, here is a guy making me laugh about the different races, including my own. Good timing God!

Besides, seeing something negative when we see someone of a different race is being ignorant. It is stopping short and putting the blame for something negative on a person because of the color of their skin or their nationality instead of where it belongs. Sin is sin, I don't care what color you are. Yes I have a problem with lazy people who take advantage of a government program and make it a lifestyle regardless of skin color. Yes I have a problem with dead beat dads, I have a problem with alcohol ruining lives and families and I have a problem with drug pushers and users. I have a problem with people breaking the law and coming into our country illegally and getting benefits. I have a problem with prostitution and girls who give themselves to any guy who asks and I have a problem with a group of people who want to do harm and destruction. There are a lot of problems in this world but you know what? Every problem we can ever find can be found all over the world being done by every race.

You want the problems to go away? Focus on the problem not the skin color or nationality and remember, "Our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places." Ephesians 6:12

Maybe the Chinese should get the restaurant "Checkers" to sponsor their NASCAR?
Get it? Chinese-Checkers? Oh well, maybe I will stay away from the comedy scene.
