Am I racist? Hell no. The day you hear me telling my kids that the white race is superior to another race is a nonexistant day. I just see it as common courtesy of adapting the basic ways of a country when you move to it for your benefit. Nothing more.

Racism is when you see your race as superior to others. I do not. I may look at, for instance, Muslims and judge the motive of their terrorist attacks according to what our society and my religion determines as right or wrong without trying to further understand because I believe murder is wrong. Thats ethnocentrism. Ethnocentrism is inevitable if you hold any set law of moral standards such as the laws that the Bible tells us to obey.
Dont shoot yourself in the head.
