The definition you gave if I remember correctly was ...............

That's what you quoted right?
Tell me how that equates to religion?
Features as in "physical features" does not equate to religion in any shape or form.
........ and even if "features" is mean't to be more expansive than just physical that's a far cry from your claim that its saying "same beliefs" ....... which its not.
Try digging yourself out of that one without resorting to base insults and deflection if you can.
Yes, "feature" could mean a religion in that context. Of course it could. I think that's perfectly clear unless for agenda driven reasons you choose not to see it.
Well if it was perfectly clear then we wouldn't be having this discussion.
What agenda do you think I have other than pointing out the fact that your trying to re-write the Dictionary version of the word racism.
I have no reason as half my family is Arabic to stick up for Islamaphobia dressed us as racism as I'm sure you can appreciate however if what your saying is inaccurate I'm going to point it out.
The only weight your holding onto that "your" definition is correct even according to the Dictionary description you've given is that you personally have decided to take liberty beyond your remit with the word "feature".
You do realise that the description you quoted may very well be alluding to physical features only right?
Definition: Race
A group of people of common ancestry, distinguished from others by physical characteristics, such as hair type, colour of eyes and skin, stature, etc. Principal races are Caucasoid, Mongoloid, and Negroid.
Another one from the Oxford Dictionary:
"Each of the major divisions of humankind, having distinct physical characteristics.
‘people of all races, colours, and creeds’"
The definition of race clarified (no mention of religion of beliefs) so to be Racist is to harbor resentment based purely on "race".
Sorry nil pois for you on this point.
Also the fact that 90% of posters are telling you otherwise yet your sticking your head in the sand rather than saying those magic words so foreign to you "sorry I was wrong".
If you were saying "Trumps policy is saying its targeting muslims but obviously has a racist driven agenda targeting muslims of a certain race in particular over others" then you would be on to something.
