#1 Disciples used it, Jesus called the Pharisees whitened sepulchres or whitened tombs.

Uh, nice try BUTTS, but the Pharisees that Christ was rebuking were the preachers of that time. Not a race, which were fellow Jews or the government over Israel, which happened to be Rome.

#5 Well, Jesus *was* famous for his Death to Whitey rants, wasn't he?

#6 I think Rev Butts is referring to Mthw 23:27,

"Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness."

The body and bones of a dead person are considered 'unclean' (Tamai in hebrew) and when a Jew touches something Tamai, the Jew becomes spiritually unclean. It requires a ceremony using the ashes of the red heifer to cure the spiritual uncleaness.

#7 The outside of the sepulchre is bright and shiny (whitewashed). The inside is full of decay and corruption. So it was with the hypocritical Pharisees: they kept up with the externals of the religion, but (apparently) didn't take it any deeper to the point where their hearts were changed. In other words, they were hypocrites.

So, no, it has nothing to do with skin color.

#8 CBS's black reporters don't even try and hide their "black racism is OK" shtick anymore.
