Christ died for guilt.

This whole thought process of paying for the sins of your ancestors is ridiculous to me. It is anti gospel and it divides people. If you read the whole bible you'll get the point that every single human being is fallen save Christ. I don't demand penance from anyone because of what had happened years ago. Because you know what my ancestors held slaves and did messed up things too just like every single group in human history because were all sinners in desperate need of grace. I'm responsible for my own sins and no one else. Stop white guilt or any kind of guilt it's toxic to our society and communities. Take responsibility for yourself. You want to see good and lasting change in your communities how about doing something about it. Be faithful parents to your spouses and your children. Be engaged in your civil government and promote good God honoring solutions. Mentor kids from single parent and at risk households and feed the hungry. Ultimately the biggest way to solve this problem is to get back to the imago dei. We need to get back to learn to see each other in God's image rather than the progressive lens or the eugenic lens.
