Hell and Damnation

Why is it that white Christians don't think that they are going to burn in hell when they harm a black person?

Why does "love thy neighbor" get thrown out the window when it comes to people of other races?

If it was pointed out to them, would they get it?

They've pinned their hopes on their faith. They don't understand a word of Jesus's god system and that's not at all how it works. They don't want to know anything except this easy theology.
