This X100.

If grandma told your 5 year old that white people should own black people you wouldn't chalk this up to a disagreement on values. If grandma told your 5 year old that women and girls should always obey men and boys you wouldn't chalk this up to different values. What if grandma told your 5 year old that the Holocaust was a hoax made up by Jewish people who are not good people? Would you be value neutral about this because there are people on the far right that believe this?

I agree with others that this incident warrants a discussion no bigotry not religion. The religions don't create the bigots. Its the bigots who hijack religions to disguise and rationalize their hate. Big difference.

I would tell him that what grandma said was very hateful and mean. Sadly, people are not always nice to others. I would also start scaling way back on the visits every few weeks. [/quote]
