I would say that it's not the Bible, but rather interpretations of it. Regardless, there will always be cases where even a "perfect" example of a (Christian) will be at odds with the standards of "the world".Arguably, "so-called" accuses them of not deserving the label, and is thus if anything a denial of the fact that many mainstream churches, and the words actually in the Bible, actually do contribute to the problem.
White people refusing to apologize for racism don't realize how douchey that is. When someone's dog dies, the first thing you say is "I'm so sorry for your loss", even though you didn't kill the dog yourself. So why is it so hard to say "I'm sorry for white racism" even if you think you've never been guilty of it yourself? Why is it so important to you that your government doesn't apologize either?
Because to many, an apology implies guilt. And after having been told all their lives that the sun rises and sets in their own pants, they are unwilling to take even the little bit of implied guilt that comes along with an apology.FB friend:

A Trump-appointed federal judge in Texas has ruled against the Biden administration’s health care protections for LGBTQ people.
President Joe Biden has been applying the Supreme Court’s landmark decision in Bostock v. Clayton County – which made anti-LGBTQ discrimination illegal in the workplace – to other areas such as education and health care.
In Bostock, the Supreme Court found that Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, which bans workplace discrimination “on the basis of sex,” applies to LGBTQ people because it is impossible to discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity without taking sex into account.
Their actions in a series of pending cases, reaching out for issues before they’ve been aired in lower courts and taking precipitous steps on culture war dilemmas, demonstrate that they will continue to defy norms and the usual judicial bounds.
“We are a court of law, not policymakers,” Justice Neil Gorsuch admonished his colleagues in late December, as he dissented from the majority’s latest incursion on immigration policy at the southern border. Gorsuch’s words were not without some irony as he usually joins with his conservative allies moving aggressively on the law.
Liberal justices had warned last June when the majority reversed Roe v. Wade that it had other precedents in its sights. “No one should be confident that this majority is done with its work,” the dissenters wrote.
