I was reading articles about history of Christianity. I stumbled upon something, which would be of some interest to all. We all know about the "Curse of Cain", but what we don't know is that many ancient Christians (18th century) believed that the Curse was DARK SKIN.
It seems this was used as a justification by Americans and Europeans while they colonised and racially segregated Africans and Asians. They believed that God himself cursed DARK skinned people, so there actions were justified. Though this belief is largely out-dated now, I felt it would be an interesting eye-opener for us.
Bobby mama are there any theological accounts of this?
