Its especially weird since Christianity doesn't really have a racial superiority in its basic scriptures. So outside of times where it's hijacked by Nazis this priest doesn't seem to have consumed a lot of Bible. Though that's usually the case with people who purport violence while hiding behind a religion.
I don't even understand if scripture does have racial superiority. Either a Supreme Creator created every being/thing or they didn't. I feel like a bunch of the Nag Hamadi scrolls being excluded probably doesn't help, for example Timothy denigrating women when women were priestesses and prophetesses all along from the parent religion and so Mary of ~~Mandala~~ Magdala having her conversations with Jesus excluded. Also cultural context of the eras should be considered. If a Creator is living, one would imagine they also evolve as everything else evolves. In fact, I've read that the tetragrammaton more accurately translates as "I am becoming [what I'm becoming], more than ”I am that I am," but I don't read Aramaic, nor Hebrew, and I am not Jewish so I'm not permitted to study Torah without converting, so I don't really know. I've tried to find writing of Baal She Tov's disciples to look further into other things along with this, but that's s newish endeavor.
