Answer 1

Don't use the devil's name in the situation. They're mean, so what! They haven't killed everyone they meet and I'm sure they don't try to hurt you or anyone else. This, the devil would do!

God doesn't care for anyone, and many will tell you he doesn't even exist. You need to be good to them, even if they're not nice to you. They don't know better, and racism comes from misunderstanding and confusion, among other things. Say hello as you would do with any other person, and they will eventually be nice to you. If not, oh well. If you believe in God, you know he will only give you what you can handle and everything that is given to you is a test. You aren't passing this one. It could be worse (and it often is much worse).

If you can't find it in you to be nice to the parents, at least be nice to the kids. Invite them to places (even if you know they'll say no). If there is a God, I doubt he forgives you. None of this wold be happening to us if there was forgiveness there to begin with. It's just gonna get worse.

Just live your life and be good to them and if they tell you to leave them alone, do it. You don't want more problems but it doesn't hurt to try to erase the ones you already have.

Answer 2

well youll nvr get anywhere if theyre racist..

i would just ignore them

i do that to my neighbors now bc i dont liek them

Answer 3

Leave them alone. Most people like that will not change.

It seems to me that they are miserable and unhappy.

Theres nothing you can do about that.

Answer 4

You do not need to deal with them. It is unnecessary and their actions will one day get back at them. Be nice and avoid much communication with them. You don't have to "love" thy neighbors in my opinion, just be nice to them and avoid much communication and I believe god will be pleased.

When you said "deal with them", I consider deal a harsh word. They're not dogs, let them "deal" with themselves. Like I said, avoid communication, but be nice. If you have kids, you should choose what their relationships should be with the neighbors kids.

Good luck and good wishes. God bless you!

Answer 5

nope. you will not be forgiven.  

Answer 6

How very sad for you and your neighbor to be in this situation. You cannot keep someone from being racist. All you can do is live your life well, and try to be kind. If they don't want the children playing together you can't change that either. How sad that your children are missing out on an opportunity to get to know each other. Could it be that she is just shy, and not racist at all? Sometimes a language barrier is hard to break through. I don't think that God will deal with them. I think he would want you both to try harder. That's sounds easier than it is, but could you invite her over for coffee? OR could you and your family make some cookies and take them over to her?  Maybe a kind gesture could get through the language barrier. Do you speak Spanish? You say she is teaching her child to be a racist by telling him in Spanish not to play with the black child? Are you sure that's what she's saying? Peace to you!

Answer 7

Ok whats the question?

Answer 8

try to ignore them! that is what i did to my spanish neighbors that are throwing stuff at my house and won't be quite!!

Answer 9

I don't think you shouldn't feel guilty for not liking them. You should pity racist people, I would smile and nod to them, and tell your son not to let it bother him, there narrow minded and horrible inside.

The best thing for you to do is leave them alone. And carry on with your lives, they'll get there come uppance when there son ends up in jail for gun crime or such. Live your lives and be happy

Answer 10

what are we supposed to answer?

Answer 11

you don't worry about them. if you want to do something, try to get them to go to church or something.  maybe try saying something like, i don't like you doing that, can you please stop? or if they won't listen, maybe just ignore them. they are not your responsibility. if you REALLY don't like them, move away. they won't care.  

Answer 12

Jessica,

I understand your frustration with your neighbors. I have some really bad neighbors I can not stand, and it is very difficult to live next to them.. especially the one who makes problems for everyone in the neighborhood.

Please re-read your question, and see where you actually appear to have hints of your own racism. Why does it matter that they are spanish (dominican)? It doesn't matter one bit really. Or does it? Perhaps you should ask yourself why you are upset with someone when you are effectively doing the same thing yourself.

Answer 13

This isn't a question.

Answer 14

Are they possibly put off by your nutty religious demeanor and holier than thou attitude?

I pity them

God will deal with them

...you see the devil

Crackers.

Answer 15

whats the question then??

Answer 16

Let it go.

Enjoy your own family and revel in the fact that you have JOY!

Maybe it will rub off on them.

But by all means, just.....let....it.....go......
