God bless this next generation. My girlfriend is black (I'm white) and my parents are fairly fundamentalist, conservative evangelical Christians. My stepfather, as much as I love him, still comments when he can on how disgusting white people dating black people are (he doesn't know I'm dating a black woman.)

We are going places as a society. This current batch of human beings is the greatest generation to have ever lived. Though we'll make _nearly_ all the same mistakes, we won't make ALL of them. We should be all proud that we're moving-on-up.
