How should i handle some cousins kids that are very racist

I have few family that has kids now just start grade 7 in senior school and they will only hang around people of their own kind because they think other religions are bad and that they are committing sin.

How can a person like me that sees them with little influence tell them that its okay to be close to people not the same religion as them. Some where born in Pakistan , Dubai or Canada.

If i say something wrong, its me the lone voice against the rest of family and friends and then they think I am suggesting their/our religion is wrong and will kick me out of their house and maybe even get violent with me.

So the dilemma is...how do i tell them that other religions are normal people too without them taking it as me saying their religion is not true because they percieve (and their imam) and own readings suggest that others are inferior...should i just ignore then and hope when they get older they learn more? they are all 12-13

I wonder how long someone would last on Babble using an ostensibly Jewish screen name and smearing Jews (said to be of his family) as racist.

"Jewish" screen name?

 

If I had a shekel for every Musa, Ibrahim, Issa and Isaac in my family tree...

I think Martin was trying to make an analogy.

If that's case he is saying that babble accepts the smearing of Arabs. 

 

Since he attacked mahmoud with this: "Aaah... the old "why single out Israelis?" line..." in this thread, he isn't very consistent in his criticisms, if you're correct.

What is a Jewish screen name?

The troll is gone and I'm closing this thread.
