have only read wot i came here to,eg review of the film,but saw heading of ur post so thought reply...presumably ur refering to racism by people replying on Imdb,and apart from having no clue why anyone would make racist comments on a film review forum/board since such comments are irrelevent to such a place and should/could get them banned,i do not think your heading 'why does it exist' is very sensible...apart from fact it invites such idiots to comment further(which it has by the amount of deleted/edited by staff comments,) it is also abit of a nieve question.Racism,like any inane bigotry,has always existed in one form or other,and no doubt always will.It makes no sense,but then to me neither does religion,baseball,or seinfeld,which is basicaly my argument-everyone has an opinion about what is right/wrong/what makes sense etc,and there is no definitive FAQ on who or what group is correct in their beliefs.(and even if there was,there would still be people who disagree with the FAQ-lol)
If you want to stop or at least have less such remarks,with an added bonus (from experience,) of annoying the people making such comments,ignore them and not fuel their fires by dragging on their dedicated subject with such replies as you made,as it doesnt help.(You know if invited a jehovas witness into your house to talk about their God that it would mean alot more chat about it than would if you just ignored them or closed the door when they knocked,yet you posted this in reply to simularily fantaticaly biased in their beleif group of people...my theory is you actualy like replying to such idiots,otherwise you wouldnt do it? :P)
Note: Better mention at this stage that i have nothing specific against Jehovas witnesses...I disagree with most if not all religions on the grounds that if they right or wrong in their beleifs,either way religion has been responsable for more wars in history than any other reason,and in my opinion anyone who goes to war over their religion by default cannot be very religious,as a true God would not want or need a war in their name...Its just Jehovas witnesses are well known for trying to force their beleifs door to door so i used them as an example,not for any other reason :P
