Topic 2 - Whether we want to admit it or not, we are all prejudiced against certain groups of people. Is there a way to end this? In our lifetime? In the lifetime of our children? Please don't rely on the argument that it's just "human nature" to behave this way.
I feel that maybe the way to end it would be to love everyone just as God loves them: unconditionally. Being a Christian, I have learned to love everyone, no matter their race, color, religion, interests, etc. This might sound cliche, but I try to think WWJD: What Would Jesus Do? I think if everyone accepted everyone else then prejudice might end. However, it would take a while. Not everyone in the world is going to be open to people different from themselves just because we say they need to, it will take some major time. I think that future generations will begin to understand this concept and maybe change the way they feel about other groups of people. While I do feel that it is partly "human nature" to behave this way, I also feel that we can change what "human nature" means/entails.
