    I think that Mr. Farrakhan is very limited in the scope of how Christianity has been manipulated. Sure, there are horrific ties to how Christianity was used to oppress all over US history, but it goes far deeper than the color of skin. If anything, the devil wants this divide between Whites and Blacks to be the focus. The devil wants people like Farrakhan (or the White Supremists groups for that matter) to continue make this a fight about color; to build a stigma that will always surface when Blacks and Whites see one another eye to eye.

    I think the biggest difference between Europeans/Christianity and Arabs(which really are Afriabs)/Islam is that Islam never put a face to Allah. Europeans made Jesus WHITE and made sure every slave knew he was white. People try to downplay that but it's really significant.

    Don't trust Christians or Muslims. Both have subjegated Africa & tried to separate us from the ways of our ancestors.

    ...and that is what the devil wants. The truth is that a generation of white people have oppressed blacks. But the "confusion" he wants is to have people make color be the basis for their character, their personality. Besides that...we (Blacks) can't even see eye to eye and it's no different on the other side...and people act confused when their own people is taking from one another. It goes deeper than race.
