DISRUPTIVE CHRISTIAN ETHICS ILLUMINAT3S THE PERSISTANCE OF RACISM AND ITS COMMINGLING WITH SEXISM, AND IT HAMMERS HOME THE POINT THAT CHRISTIAN ETHICS IS SUPPOSED TO DISRUPT THE CORRUPT BUSINESS-AS-USUAL APPROACH TO HUMAN LIFE. THE ANALYSIS OF CHURCH WORSHIP AND WHITE SUPERIORITY IS ESPECIALLY INCISIVE--SHOWING HOW THE VERY CENTER OF THE CHRISTIAN MESSAGE, CHRIST'S ATONEMENT FOR HUMAN SIN, HAS BEEN AND CONTINUES TO BE TWISTED INTO JUSTIFICATIONS FOR RACISM.
