Obviously those aren't current--any idea when they were from? I'll guess 20s or 30s or thereabouts, maybe WWI. I'm just curious...

...wow, that title TOTALLY isn't racist in and of itself. It's characteristic of its time but STILL!!

That's the funniest fucking thing I've seen all day, if they don't think black people are from God who the fuck do they think created them?

They think somehow that black people are a variation of ape/monkey.

But that's a catch-22, isn't it? Because that's just accepting evolution.

My fifth grade teacher believed that Satan was jealous of God's creation and attempted to imitate it, resulting in bad species: where God created useful insects like bees, Satan created parasitic worms that make people sick and other corrupt versions of creation. She didn't exactly say that this was her explanation of human races, but she hinted at it clearly enough for a class of ten year olds to get it.

That's the funniest fucking thing I've seen all day, if they don't think black people are from God who the fuck do they think created them? His argument was that black people were created by God, just not in his image (in other words, not descended from Adam and Eve, but created alongside the beasts of the field) and that only a goddurn librul atheist evolutionist would suggest that black and white people are the same species. There are a bunch of PDFs of the book floating around in case you're morbily curious. It's handy if you want to embarrass the "evolution is racist" lot, if nothing else. ...wow, that title TOTALLY isn't racist in and of itself. It's characteristic of its time but STILL!! To be precise, the full title is "The Negro: A Beast, or in the Image of God". But judging by the cover, the latter half is meant to be ironic:
