Racism is wrong.
Do you know why?
If you say that it is wrong, but do not ultimately know why, then all you are doing is expressing either your own personal preferences or mirroring the preferences of others.
That is not acceptable, for preferences are subjective expressions, not objective moral statements to which all are accountable. That would be like saying, “I don’t like cats or dogs.” Yet no one ever gets charged with racism for not liking cats or dogs. There must be something far more foundational.

The Final Farewell
Early on in my marketing career, I had an old buddy come up to me at an event and ask me accusingly, “As a Christian, how do you navigate the constant lying in marketing?” Throughout the years, I have heard similar sentiments from other Christians when talking about marketing. The word “marketing” often
has negative connotations for some people. In turn, the role it can play in the church is often downplayed or ignored.
